Abstract
An anchoring apparatus for data storage devices employs a sliding member mounting on a data storage device to enable the data storage device to be anchored on and removed from a computer host. The apparatus includes a sliding member, a plurality of cavities and a dock. The sliding member has coupling members with intervals not mating that of the cavities. Upon depressing the arched sliding member, the coupling members are coupled with the cavities to anchor the sliding member on the data storage device. The sliding member has a sliding section slidable on a sliding track of the dock to allow the data storage device to be slid to a desired location and anchored through a latch mechanism and a coupling mechanism.
