[0018] Please see Figures 1-3This utility model discloses a storage device for computers, including a hard disk tray 1 and a hard disk module 2. A power interface 3 is installed on the rear outer wall of the hard disk tray 1, and a SATA connector 4 is installed on the rear inner wall of the hard disk tray 1, and the SATA connector 4 is electrically connected to the power interface 3. The hard disk tray 1 has a locking slot 5, and the hard disk module 2 is locked into the hard disk tray 1 through the locking slot 5. The top of the hard disk tray 1 has a locking hole 6. The locking slots 5 on the hard disk tray 1 are arranged in a matrix, so that the hard disk module 2 is placed in an orderly manner, and the amount of data stored per unit volume is large. With the cooperation of spring 23, latch 24 and locking hole 6, the hard disk module 2 can be quickly installed, fixed and disassembled. The operation is simple and quick, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of on-site installation and shorten the installation time. At the same time, the hard disk module 2 adopts a hot-swappable connection, and a single hard disk can be easily replaced and maintained without affecting the operation of other hard disks. Especially when a fault occurs, the repair time is greatly shortened.
[0019] The hard disk module 2 includes a hard disk frame 21, a storage hard disk 22, a spring 23, and a latch 24. The storage hard disk 22 is fixed in the hard disk frame 21, and a SATA plug 25 is provided at the tail end of the storage hard disk 22. The SATA plug 25 is inserted into the SATA connector 4. The hard disk frame 21 has a sliding cavity 26, and the top of the sliding cavity 26 has an outlet 27. The spring 23 is installed at the bottom of the sliding cavity 26, and the latch 24 is installed on the spring 23. The top of the latch 24 passes through the outlet 27 and is engaged in the locking hole 6.
[0020] Specifically, the hard drive tray 1 is U-shaped, and the SATA connectors 4 are evenly distributed on the rear inner wall of the hard drive tray 1.

[0030] In use, the slots 5 on the hard drive bracket 1 are arranged in a matrix, which makes the hard drive modules 2 placed in an orderly manner and allows for a large amount of data storage per unit volume. With the cooperation of springs 23, latches 24 and locking holes 6, the hard drive modules 2 can be quickly installed, fixed and disassembled. The operation is simple and quick, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of on-site installation and shorten the installation time. At the same time, the hard drive modules 2 adopt hot-swappable connection, and individual hard drives can be easily replaced and maintained without affecting the operation of other hard drives. In particular, the repair time is greatly shortened when a failure occurs.
[0031] In summary, this computer storage device features a matrix arrangement of slots 5 on the hard drive tray 1, ensuring orderly placement of the hard drive modules 2 and maximizing data storage capacity per unit volume. Furthermore, the hard drive modules 2, with the assistance of springs 23, latches 24, and locking holes 6, allow for quick and easy installation, fixing, and removal. This simplifies operation, significantly reducing on-site installation difficulty and shortening installation time. Additionally, the hot-swappable connection of the hard drive modules 2 allows for convenient replacement and maintenance of individual hard drives without affecting the operation of other hard drives, greatly reducing repair time, especially in the event of a malfunction.
