ABSTRACT:
A fixing piece is provided for use in fixing a data-storage drive unit and similar units in position on a support structure. The fixing piece is of one-piece plastics form with predetermined fold lines about which the fixing piece can be folded to at least partially encompass the unit. The fixing piece is formed with projections for engaging in holes in the walls of the unit to restrain movement of the latter, and snap-engagable elements for snap engaging in apertures in the support structure to attach the fixing piece, and thereby a unit about which it is folded, to the support structure. A stackable form of this fixing piece is also provided.
