ABSTRACT:
A magnetic disc drive brake assembly which automatically locks the disc drive when it is removed from its case. As the disc drive is lifted, a spring is released, which spring forces a brake pad into contact with the disc drive hub, thus locking the disc drive in place. Reversing the process automatically releases the disc drive.
