Abstract
A tool for handling a modular information handling resource may include a drive portion, a first finger mechanically coupled to the drive portion, the first finger configured to apply a first force to a first side edge of the information handling resource when the information handling resource is engaged with the tool, and a second finger mechanically coupled to the drive portion, the second finger configured to apply a second force to a second side edge of the information handling resource opposite from the first side edge when the information handling resource is engaged with the tool. When the information handling resource is coupled to a connector via a bottom edge of the information handling resource adjacent and perpendicular to the side edges, a retention force applied by the connector to the information handling resource overcomes the first and second forces such that the tool releases the information handling resource.
