Abstract
A hard disc drive carrier comprises a main body, a first element extending from the main body, a second element extending from the main body opposite to the first element with a hard disc disposed between the first and second elements, at least one first pad disposed on the first element, and at least one second pad disposed on the second element. The first and second elements serve as rails for the hard disc drive carrier sliding in a hard disc drive bay. When the hard disc drive carrier reaches a predetermined position in the hard disc drive bay, the first and second pads abuts the hard disc drive bay to avoid vibration between the hard disc drive carrier and the hard disc drive bay.
