    Abstract: A system chassis includes a bottom panel, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall. The bottom panel defines a width of the system chassis. The first sidewall extends substantially vertically from a first end of the bottom panel. The first sidewall includes a first channel vertically offset from the bottom panel. The first channel is configured to mate with a first rail of an equipment rack. The second sidewall extends substantially vertically from a second end of the bottom panel, and is opposite to the first sidewall. The second sidewall includes a second channel configured to mate with an opposing rail of the equipment rack.

    Abstract: A drive (e.g., hard drive) carrier can have a frame with a door that can open to permit installation of the drive and can snap shut to secure the drive within the drive carrier. The drive carrier can include a connector lock, which can take the form of a pair of pins extending from the frame and capable of engaging corresponding retention holes of a connector of a cable. The connector lock can help align the cable's connector with the drive's connector, as well as releasably lock the cable's connector in place when operatively connected to the drive. Damping couplings can couple the carrier frame to a computer chassis. The damping couplings and the flexibility of the cable vibrationally isolate the drive from the chassis, while the connector lock ensures the cable's connector does not unintentionally disconnect from the drive.

    Abstract: A system is disclosed that includes a bay within a computer system, such as a fan bay. The system further includes a baffle positioned around a section of a perimeter of the bay. The baffle is configured to move along the section. The baffle includes a projection that extends into the bay. The projection is configured to abut against a module, such as a fan module, so that the module drives the baffle from a closed position to an open position as the module is inserted into the bay.
