ABSTRACT:
Described is an Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) disk drive module for use in a data storage system having an enclosure with slots constructed to receive Fibre Channel disk drive modules. The ATA disk drive module comprises an ATA disk drive, an adapter board connected to the ATA disk drive, and a carrier assembly including spaced apart carrier sleds mounted to the ATA disk drive and to the adapter board. The spaced apart carrier sleds have mechanical dimensions that enable the carrier assembly to slide into an enclosure slot constructed to receive a Fibre Channel disk drive module. The adapter board provides an electrical interface and a mechanical interface between the ATA disk drive and a midplane of the enclosure when the carrier assembly is inserted in the enclosure slot and the ATA disk drive module is plugged into the midplane.
