A frame for a storage device, the frame comprising:
- a bottom wall for supporting the storage device;
- an end wall extending up from an end of the bottom wall;
- and
- two cantilevered arms connected to the end wall and located above opposite sides of the bottom wall, wherein the arms are separate from the bottom wall, and a pole is formed on an inner side of each arm for engaging in the storage device.
A mounting apparatus for a storage device, the mounting apparatus comprising:
- a chassis comprising a bottom plate, two opposite side plates extending up from the bottom plate, and a connecting device between the side plates, wherein the bottom plate, the side plates and the connecting device cooperatively define a receiving space therebetween, a slidable latch comprising a latching portion is located in the connecting device, and a first elastic member is located between the latch and the connecting device;
- and
- a frame comprising a bottom wall, an end wall extending up from an end of the bottom wall, two cantilevered arms connected to the end wall and located above opposite sides of the bottom wall, and a tab extending from a top side of the end wall;
- wherein the tab has a latching slot defined therein, the arms are separate from the bottom wall, a pole is formed on an inner side of each arm for engaging in the storage device, the frame is received in the receiving space and located between the side plates, and the latching portion is engagable in the latching slot of the tab;
- and
- when the latching portion is engaged in the latching slot, the latching portion is held in position under urging of the first elastic member.
