Thin solid state drive (SSD) housing structures are described. According to one embodiment of the invention, a structure for housing an SSD includes a pair of brackets configured to support a PCBA of the SSD at either side of the PCBA via one or more ledges with corresponding fastener holes pre-configured thereon. The ledges are attached to inside surface of the brackets. Each of the brackets has a slab shape with a length and a height. The length is parallel to horizontal direction, while the height parallel to vertical. The ledges are located at mid-height and orientated substantially perpendicular to the brackets such that the PCBA is supported horizontally. In order to securely connect the PCBA with the brackets, a plurality of metal fasteners is used. The fasteners are placed through the fastener holes on the ledges and through corresponding alignment holes pre-configured on the PCBA.

In an embodiment of the present invention, a memory card includes a bottom plastic piece having a plurality of lateral sides, one of which includes a notch, and a cavity interposed along the lateral sides. A printed circuit board (PCB) assembly, including memory, is positioned in the cavity. A fin-structure is created as part of the manufacturing process of the bottom plastic piece of the card. The memory card is configured to function in a read-write mode when the fin-structure is present, and in a write-protect mode when the fins are snapped off, and the notch is exposed. Alternatively, a plug device can be insertably positioned into the notch, causing the memory card to function in a read-write mode when the plug device is positioned into the notch, and in a write-protect mode when the plug device is removed and the notch is exposed.

An embodiment of the present invention includes an electronic data flash memory card (memory card) comprising a top cover (TC), a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) and a bottom cover (BC). The TC includes a plurality of ultrasonic bonders, a plurality of breakaway tabs (tabs) and a connection device. The PCBA includes at least one memory integrated circuit (IC) and at least one controller IC. The BC includes a plurality of tabs.The TC and BC are ultrasonically bonded together, at least partially encasing the PCBA.The controller IC enables the memory card to communicate with an external host device (host) through the connection device to retrieve data files (files) from and transfer files to the host, and to store files on and retrieve files from the memory IC.The tabs are removable by the user by exerting pressure. Removal of the tabs locks or unlocks the memory card.

In one embodiment of the present invention a portable and retractable flash drive with optional rotary deploying and retracting and fingerprint verification capability is disclosed to include a cylinder assembly. The cylinder assembly has a connector situated on one end, and a fingerprint sensor situated the surface. The portable and retractable flash drive with optional rotary deploying and retracting and fingerprint verification capability further includes a rotary tube at least partially enclosing the cylinder assembly for deploying the connector. An end tube is rotatably attached to one of the two ends of the rotary tube, and an end cap is attached to the other of the two ends of the rotary tube. The rotary tube is rotated relative to the end tube to slide the cylinder assembly back and forth inside the rotary tube to extend and retract the connector.

A Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive includes a slim USB device having an end used to couple the USB flash drive to a host and an opposite end and a swivel cap having a side slit that serves as an opening into which the slim USB device travels horizontally, the side slit being disposed along a lateral side of the swivel cap. The USB flash drive also includes a USB device rivet placed into the slim USB device and the swivel cap to pivotally connect them at one of the ends of the slim USB device, so that the slim USB device is pivotally extendable outwardly from the side slit in a closed or open position. The swivel rocker is pivotally extendable outwardly from the opposite end of the slim USB device and when the swivel rocker is extended outwardly, the slim USB device is caused to extend outwardly.

A Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive includes a slim USB device having an end used to couple the USB flash drive to a host and an opposite end, and a swivel “strap shaped” metal cap having a circle cut out disposed on both cap legs. The snap coupling circle attachment allows the swivel cap to rotate substantially into a first and a second locking position and to rotate substantially 360 degrees about the z-axis of the USB device. The metal cap is generally in a locked position when the snap slot is aligned atop the snap lock tabs such that the protrusion snap ring is descended downward until the positioned flush against the snap lock groove. When unlocked the protrusion snap ring is raised up and rested upon the two snap lock tabs.
