Abstract

A data storage carrier includes a middle member with at least one handle between ends of the middle member. Side members are coupled to the respective ends of the middle member via living hinges. The side members each include at least two protrusions configured to interface with side mounting holes of a data storage drive. The living hinges are bendable so that the protrusions interface with the side mounting holes of the drive and the middle member interfaces with a back side of the drive.
