Storage device bracket

Abstract

A storage device bracket configured to hold and position a storage device includes a bracket body and at least one positioning assembly. The storage device has first and second grooves respectively provided on two opposite sides thereof. The bracket body defines a receiving space for receiving the storage device. The at least one positioning assembly includes an engaging hook and an elastic engaging plate respectively provided on two opposite sides of the bracket body. The engaging hook protrudes from one of the opposite sides of the bracket body into the receiving space, and is configured to be removably inserted into the first groove. The elastic engaging plate has an elastic plate portion, and a protrusion connected to and protruding from the elastic plate portion into the receiving space for insertion into the second groove so as to limit movement of the storage device relative to the storage device bracket.
