Abstract
A drive cage assembly of a computer enclosure for receiving a data storage device therein includes a cage, a securing plate and a coupling piece. The cage has a base wall, an upper wall horizontally extending from an upper edge of the base wall and a lower wall horizontally extending from a lower edge of the base wall. The cage defines a side opening. The base wall forms at least one pair of posts projecting from the inner side thereof for inserting into corresponding holes defined in the data storage device. The securing plate is attached to the side opening of the cage and also forms at least one pair of posts in its inner side for inserting into holes defined in the data storage device. The coupling piece couples the securing plate to the cage thereby securely mounting the data storage device to the cage.
