ABSTRACT:
A circuit card retainer for securing a circuit card within a circuit card receiving channel to mitigate the possibility of a circuit card connector jarring loose from a motherboard slot during transit or other vibration or shock causing activity. The circuit card retainer securely retains an inner edge of the circuit card upon insertion of the circuit card, and allows the circuit card to be extracted only if the groove abutment is flexed away from the inner edge of the circuit card, thereby removing the obstruction caused by the groove abutment.
