Abstract

A method and apparatus for providing an EMI seal in a system chassis. The EMI seal is provided by a bezel assembly for a storage medium drive. The bezel assembly includes a front bezel having an aperture through which a tray can extend for loading and unloading of the storage medium drive, and a tray bezel attached to the tray. Attached to the front bezel is an electrically conductive link. Both the front bezel and the tray bezel include an electrically conductive inner surface. Upon closing the tray, the electrically conductive link provides an electrical connection between the inner surface front bezel and the inner surface of the tray bezel.
