ABSTRACT:
A mounting assembly for data storage device includes a data storage device (10) with fixing holes (14) along two opposite sidewalls, a cage (20) receiving the data storage device, a fixing member (40) and an elastic portion (50). The cage defines a plurality of mounting holes (28) corresponding to the fixing holes. The fixing member movably engages with the cage. A plurality of attaching pins (44) is extended from the fixing member. A resilient member (30) deformed under pressure comprises two wings and received between the cage and the fixing member. When the resilient member is deformed, the fixing member is forced apart from the cage and the elastic portion is compressed; when the resilient member reinstates, the compressed elastic portion pushes the fixing member to approach the cage, so that the attaching pins on the fixing member can be automatically inserted into or retreated from the fixing holes of the data storage device.
