ABSTRACT:
A mounting apparatus includes a bracket (10) for receiving a storage device (90) defining a plurality of apertures (92). An aperture (126) and four holes (125) are defined in a wall (12) of the bracket. A slidable member (30) is movably attached to the wall. A retention member (50) is slidable relative to the slidable member in first direction and second directions generally perpendicular to each other. Four latches (513) are formed on the retention member. A switch member (70) is pivotally attached to the wall. When the switch member is driven outside from the aperture of the bracket by the storage device, the slidable member is urged by the switch member to move away from the switch member in the first direction, and the retention member is moved in the second direction to drive said latch through said hole for engaging in said aperture of the storage device.
