Electronic device having mounting structure for hard disk drive
According to one embodiment, an electronic device is provided with a casing including a module receiving portion which receives a module and includes a module supporting wall and a module surrounding wall. The module supporting wall includes a module support portion, and an opening provided between the support portion and the module surrounding wall.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a hard disk drive comprising a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, a plurality of first projections projecting from the second surface along a periphery of the second surface, and a second projection projecting from the second surface and having a height less than a height of the plurality of first projections;
a casing comprising a first wall, a second wall opposite to the first wall, the second wall including a support portion and a recess formed in the second wall to receive the hard disk drive, the recess including a bottom supporting the first projections and a peripheral wall surrounding the hard disk drive; and
a cover member attached to the second wall of the casing and having at least a portion opposing the first surface of the hard disk drive,
wherein the recess includes a plurality of first slits formed in the bottom closer to the peripheral wall than the first projections.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the bottom includes a plurality of second slits that extend from opposite ends of each of the plurality of first slits and reach positions farther from the peripheral wall than the first projections, wherein the plurality of second slits extend along outer peripheries of the first projections.
3. The electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising a spacer provided in the casing between the bottom and the first wall along the peripheral wall such that the spacer does not overlap with the hard disk drive.
4. The electronic device of claim 3 , further comprising elastic buffer members provided between the bottom and the respective first projections, the first and second slits extending along outer peripheries of the buffer members.
5. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the buffer members extend along a length of the hard disk drive.
6. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the second projection is positioned at a position corresponding to a motor of the hard disk drive, and wherein the bottom includes an opening larger than a perimeter of the second projection and positioned at a position corresponding to the second projection.
7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the recess includes a plurality of third slits, and wherein the plurality of first projections are interposed between the plurality of third slits and the plurality of first slits.
8. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the peripheral wall includes a corner, and wherein the plurality of first slits are positioned between the corner and at least some of the plurality of first projections.
