An apparatus for housing a storage processor includes first and second side portions each extending in a plane defined by a first direction and a second direction, and separated from each other in a third direction; first and second flapper components disposed between the first side portion and the second side portion, extending in a first plane and a second plane, respectively, and rotatable about a first axis and a second axis, respectively, the first flapper component coupled to the first side portion and having a first end face, the second flapper component coupled to the second side portion and having a second end face; and first and second magnetic components disposed in the first end face and the second end face, respectively, and configured to be coupled to each other by a magnetic force so as to couple the first end face to the second end face.

Apparatus for housing storage processor, and storage server

A chassis housing one or more Information Handling Systems (IHSs) includes a bay for coupling hardware components to the chassis, such as rear-facing bay that extends from the chassis midplane to an externally accessible opening. A first hardware component is fastened to a removeable carrier and the carrier is inserted in the bay, with the first hardware component coupling to the midplane. The carrier includes arms that extend to the externally accessible opening. Each arm includes a retractable handle that is used, when in an extended position, to extract the carrier from the bay. A second, removeable hardware component is inserted in the bay, with the second hardware components nested between the arms of the carrier. The carrier handles rotate to a concealed position when the second hardware component is nested in the carrier and the handles rotate to the extended position when the second hardware component is removed.

Carrier supporting nested, replaceable hardware components

A latching assembly is configured for releasably coupling a first component to a second component. The latching assembly includes an actuator portion configured to be longitudinally-displaceable along an axis of insertion of the first component and between an engaged position and a disengaged position. One or more ejector assemblies include a first end and a second end. The one or more ejector assemblies are configured to: slidably engage the actuator portion on the first end, releasably engage a locking structure on the second end, and pivot about a rotation point positioned between the first end and the second end.

Latching assembly

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a drive assembly, a chassis assembly, and a server device. The drive assembly comprises: a drive having a first end extending in a direction perpendicular to a length direction of the drive and a first side extending in a direction perpendicular to a width direction of the drive, wherein the drive interface is provided at the first end of the drive; and an adapter having first and second interfaces that are electrically connected with each other, wherein the first interface is plugged into the drive interface, and the second interface is adjacent to the first side of the drive so as to be electrically coupled to other components.
