Electronic device with data storage assembly
An electronic device includes a chassis and a data storage assembly slidably received in the chassis. The data storage assembly includes a bracket and a plurality of hard disk drives uprightly inserted in the bracket, which can arrange more hard disk drives in the bracket effectively.
1. A data storage assembly, comprising:
a bracket with an opening defined in a top of the bracket, a backplane with a plurality of parallel connectors fixed in a bottom of the bracket;
a mounting member received in the bracket and positioned on the backplane, the mounting member comprising a plurality of parallel first dividing plates and a plurality of slots each defined between two adjacent first dividing plates, the connectors respectively extending through the slots;
a cover pivotably covering the opening of the bracket, the cover comprising a plurality of parallel second dividing plates; and
a plurality of hard disk drives uprightly inserted in the bracket through the opening, wherein connectors of the hard disk drives are plugged in the connectors of the backplane respectively, the opposite ends of the hard disk drives are locked by the second dividing plates of the cover and the first dividing plates of the mounting member, respectively.
2. The data storage assembly of claim 1 , wherein when assembling the hard disk drives in the bracket, the cover is rotated to uncover the opening, the hard disk drives are uprightly inserted into the bracket with the connectors of the HDDs facing down, first sides of the hard disk drives are guided between two adjacent second dividing plates of the cover, to slide down until the connectors of the hard disk drives are plugged into the corresponding connectors.
3. The data storage assembly of claim 2 , wherein a first side of the cover is pivotably mounted to the bracket, a flange is formed from a second side of the cover, first sides of the hard disk drives opposite to the first sides are blocked by the flange of the cover.
4. The data storage assembly of claim 1 , wherein two handles extend out from the bracket, to conveniently operate the data storage assembly.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the chassis comprises a bottom wall and two sidewalls perpendicularly extending from opposite sides of the bottom wall, the data storage assembly is positioned on the bottom wall and slidable along an elongated direction of the sidewalls.
6. An electronic device, comprising:
a chassis; and
a data storage assembly slidably received in the chassis, the data storage assembly comprising:
a bracket with an opening defined in a top of the bracket, a backplane with a plurality of parallel connectors fixed in a bottom of the bracket;
a mounting member received in the bracket and positioned on the backplane, the mounting member comprising a plurality of parallel first dividing plates and a plurality of slots each defined between two adjacent first dividing plates, the connectors respectively extending through the slots;
a cover pivotably covering the opening of the bracket, the cover comprising a plurality of parallel second dividing plates; and
a plurality of hard disk drives uprightly inserted in the bracket, wherein connectors of the hard disk drives are plugged in the connectors of the backplane respectively, the opposite ends of the hard disk drives are locked by the second dividing plates of the cover and the first dividing plates of the mounting member, respectively.
7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein when assembling the hard disk drives in the bracket, the cover is rotated to open the bracket, the hard disk drives are uprightly inserted into the bracket with the connectors of the HDDs facing down, first sides of the hard disk drives are guided between two adjacent second dividing plates of the cover, to slide down until the connectors of the hard disk drives are plugged into the corresponding connectors.
8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein a first side of the cover is pivotably mounted to the bracket, a flange is formed from a second side of the cover, first sides of the hard disk drives opposite to the first sides are blocked by the flange of the cover.
9. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein two handles extend out from the bracket, to conveniently operate the data storage assembly.
