Description

ABSTRACT:
A portable electronic apparatus includes a base having a first drive mounting portion. A drive fixing member having a second mounting portion, including a raised planar surface, is mounted on the first drive mounting portion with just screws. The drive fixing member covers the first disk drive. Second screws fix the first disk drive within the drive fixing member. A second disk drive is mounted on the second drive mounting portion. A third screw fixes the second disk drive on the second drive mounting portion. A disk drive mounting space is compact because the first and the second disk drives are fixed on the same drive fixing member. Additional details relate to a handle assembly, a tilt-leg base for a keyboard, keyboard keys, two covers, and an expansion card mounting device.
