Abstract
Certain exemplary aspects of the present disclosure are directed towards an apparatus including a base deck, a plurality of storage mediums, and a plurality of disc separator plates. Each disc separator plate includes one or more mounting pad surfaces, at least one of the surfaces having a protrusion. The disc separator plates are coupled to one another and the base deck via the mounting pads, with the disc separator plates in a stacked arrangement. The protrusion or protrusions facilitate alignment of the plurality of disc separator plates in the stacked arrangement, and mitigate contact between the storage mediums and the disc separator plates.
