A removable hard drive tray includes a seat, a coupling plate and a coupling arm. The seat includes a bottom plate, a first side plate and a second side plate. The first side plate has a through hole. The coupling plate is disposed in an outer side of the first side plate and has a hollow slot. The coupling arm has a pivot end and a free end. The pivot end is pivoted in the hollow slot, and the free end has a latch. The free end rotates to the hollow slot and passes the through hole. Thus the hard drive is combined in the accommodating space by an engagement of the latch and the fastening hole.
