Zusammenfassung:A removable fan bay for a computer system or information handling system is provided that permits the hot swapping of individual fans of the fan bay. The removal of the fan bay enclosures results in the removal of all of the fans of the fan bay. The fan bay is held in place by a securing mechanism that includes a latch and a receiving bracket. The latch includes a retractable handle. When the handled is placed in the raised position, a shoulder in the latch disengages from the receiving bracket, permitting the latch to be released from the receiving bracket and permitting the fan bay to be removed from the chassis of the computer system.
