Abstract
A media drive mount includes first and second first and second channels open at one end for receiving locating protrusions on a media drive. The locating protrusions can, for example, be screwed onto the media drive mount. Resilient detents are provided in the channels to co-operate with the resilient detents. The resilient detents can be configured to provide resistance during insertion and removal of the media drive, the former being used to provide positive locating of the media drive, and the latter to hold the media drive in the mount. Mounting and demounting of the media drive in the mount can be achieved without the use of tools.
