ABSTRACT:
A multiple component mounting system includes a first carrier including a base. A plurality of first component coupling members are located on the base and define a first component channel. At least one of the first component coupling members include a first resilient member that is operable to engage a first component when the first component is located in the first component channel in order to secure the first component to the base free of the use of a tool. A plurality of second component coupling members are located on the base and define a second component channel. At least one of the second component coupling members include a second resilient member that is operable to engage a second component when the second component is located in the second component channel in order to secure the second component to the base free of the use of a tool. A plurality of second carrier coupling members are located on the base and operable to secure the base to a second carrier that may then be mounted to an information handling system chassis.

CRU Dataport has a removable HD carrier that houses two 2.5 HDs into an F3 slot, but they are not tool-less and use screws for securing the HDs http://www.cru-dataport.com/htmldocs/products/dataport25/DP25.html.
Icy Dock offers a removable 2.5“HD, but it is a single 2.5” HD that fits into an F3 slot, http://www.icydock.com/product/mb663ur-1s.html.
This bracket houses only one 2.5“HD in a 3.5” slot and requires screws for assembly http:/www.addonics.com/products/io/aa25ide35.asp.
This is for dual 2.5 HDs that fit in an F3 slot . . . not an internal HD slot. http://www.arcoide.corn/disk—micro. php http://www.pcconnection.com/ProductDetail?Sku=6043319.
This bracket allows for two 2.5 Hds but they are screw mounted http://www. mini-itx.com/store/?c=12.
