Abstract
A reduced-depth rack server for a reduced depth rack includes a data storage device rotated a quarter turn within a carrier. An interposer cable connects at one end to a laterally presented electrical connector of the data storage device and presents another connector to an end that is inserted inwardly into a rack server chassis to electrically connect with a backplane of the reduced-depth rack server. In one embodiment, a data storage assembly of the data storage device, carrier and interposer cable is inserted from a front end of the chassis. In one embodiment, the data storage assembly is inserted from a top of the chassis to facilitate airflow.
