Abstract
Apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed teaching an apparatus comprising an extender including a body and a tab, the tab coupled to the memory device, a first surface of the tab to be aligned with a second surface of the memory device. Examples disclosed herein further include a bracket to extend across the second surface of the memory device and the first surface of the tab, the bracket coupled to the first surface of the tab via fasteners.
Claims24
An apparatus comprising:
- an extender including a body and a tab, the tab coupled to a memory device, a first surface of the tab to be aligned with a second surface of the memory device;
- and
- a bracket to extend across the second surface of the memory device and the first surface of the tab, the bracket coupled to the first surface of the tab via fasteners.
An apparatus comprising:
- an extender having a length extending between opposite first and second ends of the extender, the extender having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the first end of the extender including a recess to mate with a tab on an end of a memory device, the memory device having a third surface and a fourth surface opposite the third surface, the extender to be coupled to the memory device via the tab such that the first surface is positioned adjacent the third surface and the second surface is positioned adjacent the fourth surface, the first and third surfaces to face in a first direction, the second and fourth surfaces to face in a second direction opposite the first direction;
- and
- a bracket to be attached to the extender, the bracket to interface with the first, second, third, and fourth surfaces.
An apparatus comprising:
- means for extending a first length of a memory device to a second length, the extending means including a first tab, the memory device including a second tab to interface with the first tab to align opposing surfaces of the memory device with opposing surfaces of the extending means;
- and
- means for securing the memory device and the extending means in elongate alignment, the elongate alignment securing means to contact the opposing surfaces of the memory device and the opposing surfaces of the extending means.
A system comprising:
- a sled including drive bays dimensioned to receive first memory devices having a first form factor;
- a second memory device having a second form factor smaller than the first form factor;
- and
- an extender to attach to the second memory device, the extender dimensioned to make up a difference in length between the first form factor and the second form factor to enable the second memory device to be supported in one of the drive bays.
