Abstract

Described herein are example carrier systems for supporting memory storage drives of multiple sizes. The carrier systems include a carrier tray having a u-shape formed by a front bezel that extends between first and second lateral plates, and a tray adapter removably attached to the carrier tray. The carrier tray has a carrier internal space between the first and second lateral plates and is configured to receive a first memory storage drive. The tray adapter has a bottom plate that extends between first and second side walls. The tray adapter has a tray internal space between the first and second side walls, the tray internal space is configured to receive a second memory storage drive. The second memory storage drive has a smaller size than the first memory storage drive.
