Anti-shock structure for data storage device

Abstract

An anti-shock structure for a data storage device is proposed. The anti-shock structure mountable to an enclosure of an electronic device can protect a data storage device received in the anti-shock structure against shock coming from the enclosure of the electronic device. The anti-shock structure includes a base having a first positioning portion and at least a first position limit portion disposed thereon, and a circuit board having a second positioning portion and a second position limit portion. The data storage device is received in the base and electrically connected to the electronic device through the circuit board. The circuit board is movably mounted to the base with its second positioning portion being movably matched to the first positioning portion of the base for positioning the circuit board and its second position limit portion being engaged with the first position limit portion for preventing the circuit board from detaching from the base. Thereby, shock coming from the enclosure is absorbed by the circuit board instead of being transmitted to the data storage device received by the base. Thus, the data storage device is protected.
