Abstract
A storage chassis may be adapted, or configured, to secure a plurality of carrierless devices (e.g., without the use of a carrier or drive tray) received thereby. The storage chassis may include a base, a first drive wall coupled to and extending from the base, and a second drive wall coupled to and extending from the base. Each of the first and second drive walls may include a top edge spaced away from a bottom portion of the base. The base, the first drive wall, and the second drive wall may define a row of drive slots and each drive slot may be configured to receive a carrierless device. Further, the storage chassis may include a plurality of locking units configured to extend across corresponding drive slots between the top edge of the first drive wall and the top edge of the second drive wall.
