Abstract

A hard disk drive holder fixes hard disk drives in electronic equipment, and includes at least one handling assembly and a bracket for receiving the handling assemblies. Each of the handling assemblies is fixed to one of the hard disk drives to push or pull the hard disk drive into or out from the bracket for replacement or repair, and includes a handle and a pair of handle seats. The handle includes a holding portion and two extending portions including a convex block. Each of the handle seats includes a housing cavity and a spring clip. The spring clip includes a first stopper portion, a second stopper portion and a hook portion. The convex block is movable between the first stopper portion and the second stopper portion to limit movement range of the handle.
