Abstract

A clamp assembly for removably attaching a drive bay support to a main computer chassis. The clamp assembly includes a clamp support having a hook portion and at least one clamp link for pivotally attaching the clamp support to the drive bay support. The clamp asssembly is in a clamped position when the clamp assembly is pivoted about the drive bay support such that the hook portion of the clamp support engages a hook portion of the main chassis. The clamp assembly is in an unclamped position when the clamp assembly is pivoted about the drive bay support such that the hook portion of the clamp support does not engage the main chassis.
