Abstract
A chassis includes a housing of an expansion card receiver adapted to house an expansion card and limit removal of the expansion card to a removal path; and a card holder of the expansion card. The card holder, while a retention member of the card holder is disposed in the removal path, receives a translation force directed away from the expansion card along the removal path; in response to receiving the translation force: translates the retention member along the removal path away from the expansion card until the retention member reaches a translation limiter to transition the retention member from a translatable state to a rotatable state, while the retention member is in the rotatable state and not in the translatable state: receives a rotation force directed out of the removal path; and in response to receiving the rotation force, rotate the retention member out of the removal path.
