Abstract

Various embodiments of the present technology provide systems and methods for mounting and dismounting a computing component (e.g., a HDD) of a server system. The server system contains one or more drawers, each of which can host a plurality of computing components. A computing component can have a side surface attached to a lever via a hinge. When the computing component is placed into a designated location of a drawer, pressing a first end of the lever in one direction can cause a second end of the lever to interact with at least one portion of the drawer and further cause the computing component to move into a close position or out of the close position.
