ABSTRACT:
A computer subsystem including stackable, interlocking, modular peripheral containment enclosures, each the enclosure including broad top and bottom walls held in spaced-apart arrangement by opposed shorter side walls and a rear wall, the walls joined along their respective marginal edges to form an enclosure cavity accessible through the front opening formed thereby, a device extending rearward from the front opening interior the cavity for receiving therealong an enclosed sled containing a computer peripheral, in controlled alignment, the sled including a front face that aligns flush against the front enclosure opening when the sled is fully seated in the cavity, a device for electrically interconnecting the peripheral to a connectable connector in the enclosure, a device for providing an air cooling throughout the cavity including an aperture formed in at least one the side wall for passage of air therethrough, and a device for interconnecting a plurality of the enclosures in horizontal or vertical arrangement external the enclosure walls for positioning on a flat surface including device for maintaining a space between the flat surface and the enclosure wall nearest the surface.
