Abstract

The present invention discloses an external hard disk box. An upper cover and a lower cover of the box are positioned and fixed by soft silicon rings or silicon covers, without requiring any screw. In addition, a data transmission line associated with the external hard disk box can be accommodated; therefore, a user needs not to carry another data transmission line when going out. A top of the soft silicon ring is provided with grooves and a bottom of the soft silicon ring is provided with pillars which can act as foot pads to connect with the grooves of another external hard disk. Therefore, the present invention is provided with functions of stacking and shock-proofing.
