Claim 14:
15. An automated hardware manipulation system, comprising:
a device carrier assembly adapted to removably mate with a chassis, including:
a device carrier adapted to receive a computing element; and
a biased latch attached to the device carrier and adapted to transition between an engaged state and a retracted state, the retracted state facilitating removal of the device carrier from the chassis, the biased latch including extendable portions adapted to engage the chassis in the engaged state, the extendable portions including a slideable window adapted to expose one of a plurality of indicators; and

an actuator assembly operable to apply an engagement force to the biased latch to transition the biased latch between the engaged state and the retracted state based on which one of the plurality of indicators is exposed.
