Original Abstract Submitted
A storage assembly includes a cage, a circuit backplate, a tray and an auxiliary mounting linkage. The cage has a mounting space, an opening and a first pressed protruding portion. The opening is connected to the mounting space, and the first pressed protruding portion is located in the mounting space. The circuit backplate and the tray is disposed in the mounting space. The auxiliary mounting linkage includes a first link, a second link and a connecting link. The first link has a first end and a second end opposite to each other. The second link has a first end and a second end opposite to each other. The first ends are pivotally disposed on the tray. Two opposite ends of the connecting link are pivotally disposed on the second ends, respectively. Each of the first ends has an assembly protruding portion and a disassembly protruding portion.
