Abstract
A mounting apparatus includes a mounting frame () secured to a chassis () and receiving a data storage device () therein. The data storage device includes a pair of posts () on each of opposite sides thereof. The mounting frame includes a bottom wall () and two sidewalls (). A pair of channels () is defined in the sidewalls respectively for receiving the posts of the data storage device. Each of the channels forms a stop end () and an inwardly projecting resilient member () spacing from the stop end. The resilient member of one of the channels has a slanted portion and a vertical portion. When a corresponding post of the data storage device rides over the slanted portion, the vertical portion stops the post from escaping from the channel. Thus the data storage device is retained in the mounting frame.
