Abstract
A computer in which a hard drive-carrier assembly is mounted in the computer enclosure and includes a housing defining a space, and a hard drive mounted in the space. The dimensions of the space are slightly less that the corresponding exterior dimensions of the hard drive to provide an interference fit between the hard drive and the housing. The housing is mounted in a cage formed by a plurality of articulated arms and a flexible connector is provided that connects the hard drive to the computer's motherboard.
