Abstract
An HDD mounting apparatus for installing HDDs into a server device is disclosed. The mounting apparatus includes frame dimensioned to receive an HDD and fit within a drive bay with a connector positioned inside for connecting to the HDD. A top cover is secured to one of the long sides of the frame and provides a slot within which a sliding mechanism travels linearly. The sliding mechanism has an engagement mechanism to engage with an edge of the drive bay. A lever is rotatably connected to the top cover by a first hinge. A connector arm is further connected to the lever at one end, and to the sliding mechanism at a second end. When the lever is rotated in one direction, the connector arm generates a force on the sliding mechanism in the first direction that is transferred to a force on the frame in a second opposite direction.
