Patent ID: 7626810

Claim:
A disk drive carrier which houses a hard disk drive and which has improved shielding for electromagnetic interference (EMI) emitted by the hard disk drive, comprising: a disk drive tray which receives the hard disk drive within the disk drive carrier, the disk drive tray comprising a non-conductive material and a layer of conductive material attached to the disk drive tray to shield a portion of the EMI emitted by the hard disk drive; a handle and a handle housing connected to a front side of the disk drive tray, the handle pivotally connected to the handle housing for moving the disk drive carrier into and out of a position in which the disk drive carrier is normally retained during use, the handle and the handle housing formed substantially of material which is substantially incapable of absorbing electromagnetic radiation; and a high-frequency energy absorbing member located at the handle housing, the high-frequency energy absorbing member absorbing EMI emitted at the handle housing.
