Easy to remove standoff

Abstract

A computing system capable of mounting hardware is provided. The computing system may comprise a printed circuit board (PCB) having a connector and a hardware device communicatively attached to the PCB. The hardware device may have a fastener to secure it to the PCB. The PCB may include a magnet holder physically attached to the PCB and a magnetic standoff for removably coupling the PCB with the hardware device. The magnetic standoff can include a first end attached to the connector of the PCB, and a second end attached to the fastener of the hardware device. The second end of the magnetic standoff can be secured in place by a magnetic force between the magnet holder and the magnetic standoff.
