The present invention relates to a disc data storage apparatus with a structure for preventing cracked discs from jetting out. The disc data storage apparatus has a tray for receiving a disc, a cover and a housing. The cover has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is connected to a front flange of the housing, and the second portion is extended into the housing to form a barrier portion. When a disc cracks, the barrier portion is configured to stop and prevent the cracked disc from jetting out.

When a disk drive is running, airflow is generated in the disk drive. The disk drive includes a tray and a housing. A plurality of through-holes are disposed on the tray, and the housing accommodates the tray therein. While airflow flows over the through-hole, noise is generated. Walls are formed on the rim of the through-hole to reduce this noise. A sponge for absorbing noise is adhered on the inner top portion of the housing for absorbing noise. As holes are located on the front end of the tray for guiding airflow, noise is reduced to a lower level.
