ABSTRACT:
The invention provides exemplary systems and methods for releasably securing a data storage device within a data storage system. In one exemplary embodiment, the invention comprises a cabinet which defines an enclosure. The data storage device is removably held within the enclosure. A cover is further provided which comprises a pivot end and a latch end. The pivot end is pivotally attached to the data storage device so that pivoting of the cover will release the data storage device at least partially from the enclosure. A cover latch is operably attached to the latch end, with the cover latch engaging the data storage device to prevent pivoting of the cover when the cover is closed.
