Embodiment Construction

[0075] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on examples. figure 1 It is a perspective view which shows the appearance of SSD10 which is an Example of this invention. This SSD 10 is constructed by inserting an upper case 20 made of 0.6 mm thick galvanized steel sheet (SECC) that has been sheet-metal-processed into an ABS resin lower case 50 , and accommodates a wiring board 80 therein. A plurality of flash memories as semiconductor memories are mounted on the wiring substrate 80 to realize a storage capacity of 64 Gbytes in total. At one end in the longitudinal direction of the SSD 10 is provided a connector (hereinafter also referred to as a SATA connector) 85 to be coupled to a SATA connector provided inside the computer, and a USB connector 88 is provided at the other end.

[0076] The SSD 10 of this embodiment has the same shape as the standard of the hard disk of 2.5 inches in size, and on the upper surface 22, according to the standa...

Abstract

The invention provides an external storing device and its housing. The external storing device can improve the interchangeability of small-size external storing devices. A first and a second housings are provided with storage media and one ends of the first and the second housings are provided wiring substrates of a connector for external connection. A first threaded hole for installing the external storing device is disposed at a plurality of parts of the surface of the first housing with respect to the wiring substrate. The second housing is provided with wall parts which respectively protrude towards the internal second housing at the plurality of positions corresponding to the first threaded hole of the first housing, thereby entering space of a threaded component fastened in the first threaded hole is ensured. Hook-shaped components, disposed at at least parts of the plurality of wall parts and at the inner side surface of the second housing are used for clamping the wiring substrate between the hook-shaped components and a supporting component supporting the wiring substrate from the lower side.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an external storage device and its casing. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, hard disks (hereinafter, abbreviated as HD as necessary) and silicon disks (Silicon Disk, hereinafter abbreviated as SSD as necessary) have been widely used as external storage devices. These external storage devices attach importance to interchangeability when installed in a computer, and the shape, the position of the mounting screw member, and the like are standardized. Recently, instead of a hard disk, an SSD is sometimes installed, and the standard of 3.5 inches and the standard of 2.5 inches, which are determined by the size of the magnetic disk of the original hard disk, are also often used in other external storage devices. In addition, various adapters capable of mounting external storage devices of different sizes have also been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1 below).
