Abstract
A media holder for securely holding various sizes of data storage media in a single holder. The media holder includes a rear wall, bottom surface and a plurality of spaced parallel flange portions extend inwardly from the rear wall and bottom surface to form compartments. Rear biasing members extend angularly across the rear wall of each of these compartments. Bottom biasing members extend angularly across the bottom surface of each of these compartments in approximately the same direction and same angle as the rear biasing members. Data storage media, such as optical disk cases, are inserted into the compartments formed by the spaced flange portions. The angled surfaces of the rear and bottom biasing members bias the media against an adjacent flange portion. The line contact between the angled surfaces and media and the surface contact between the media and the adjacent flange portion will securely hold differing widths and sizes of media in the media holder.
