Abstract

A server allowing individual dismounting of data storage units includes a housing, a frame, and a data storage device mounting structure. The frame defines two openings and is slidably attached to the housing. The data storage device mounting structure includes a fixing plate rotationally attached to the frame. The fixing plate includes a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, and a protrusion extending from each of the first end and the second end. The two protrusions are alternately received in the two openings. When the protrusion on the second end is received in an opening, the protrusion on the first end is retracts from the other opening and the protrusion on the second end abuts against the housing to allow a single data storage unit but not the frame to be taken out of the housing.
