Claim:
A fastening device for a hard disk drive (HDD), the fastening device comprising: a bracket comprising two parallel clamping arms for sandwiching the HDD, and a connection plate connected between the clamping arms, each clamping arm longitudinally defining an elongate first through slot; two hook devices each comprising an end portion engaging in an inner side of the corresponding clamping arm near the connection plate, a locking portion received in a corresponding one of the first through slots, and a slanting connection portion connected between the end portion and the locking portion, a first locking pole and a second locking pole both extending from the locking portion to engage in locking holes defined in a corresponding side of the HDD; and an operation member slidably connected to the connection plate; wherein when the operation member is manipulated toward the connection plate, the connection plate abuts against the connection portions of the hook devices to move the connection portions outward, thereby disengaging the first and second locking poles from the HDD.
