A system for spacing and stabilizing a row of computers includes a strap attached to a plurality of spacer blocks. The strap is arrayed over top of the computer row, and each spacer block is inserted between a pair of adjacent computers to provide substantially uniform spacing between the computers. An anchor block attached to each end of the strap is wrapped around an end computer at each end of the row, and each anchor block engages the corresponding end computer to limit movement of the strap. The assembly of the strap, the spacer blocks and the anchor blocks with the row of computers stabilizes the row of computers and inhibits a lateral toppling motion of the individual computers.

A storage apparatus for the storage of a collection of data media in the form of compact discs, CD-ROMs or DVD discs or the like in their original cases, comprising a number of individual box-like holders which can be releasably attached to each other so that the system can be simply expanded to accommodate more compact discs, CD-ROMs or DVD discs in their original cases at any desired location within the storage system. Each holder comprises a base and first and second opposing vertical side walls which hold a CD case or other case between the side walls. Each holder is provided with first and second fastening means at first and second sides respectively of the holder, adapted to permit the releasable engagement of the first fastening means of one holder with the second fastening means of an adjacent holder. The fastening means may comprise interengaging projecting portions and apertures arranged between the projecting portions, or interengaging fit male and female members. The holders may be slidably mounted on rails.

The present invention is a system for labeling and displaying information on one or more data storage packages. The present invention relates particularly to providing covers with information on the outer surfaces of compact disc, DVD and other product containers. Labels may be attached to stacks of one or more rigid holders in order to display information on the cover, spine or base. Printed graphic cards may be inserted between the rigid plastic holders and covers of clear, flexible cover material. The clear cover material is formed into a clear pocket attached at the opening edge of the rigid cover and base. Alternatively, printed graphic cards are adhered to the outer rigid holders by placing adhesive on the cover and base holders but not on the spines. Also, a clear pocket may be attached to the spine of a stack of rigid holders with a printed graphic insert sliding into the pocket.

A disk storage magazine in which the number of stored disks per unit volume can be increased. A pair of disk holding members (4), which are bent into a bellows shape by the number of stored disks, are arranged substantially in parallel with a direction in which disks (1) come off on both sides of a magazine case (2). When the disk storage magazine is opened, the disk (1) is held by valley portion of the folded portions of the disk holding members (4), and held between tapered faces on opposite sides of the valley portion. When the disk storage magazine is closed, the disk holding member (4) is bent until the tapered faces holding the edge of surface of the disk (1) become substantially in parallel with the disk surface, and fixes and holds the disks (1) in a state of touching and pressing the disks (1). Thereby, clearances in the stacking direction between the disk (1) and the disk holding member (4) can be eliminated.

A carrier for storing a plurality of memory devices therein and a method of manufacture for the carrier are provided. The carrier includes a jacket having a plurality of interconnected panels. A hinge member is applied to a hinge edge of containers. One of the panels of the jacket is then secured to the hinge member to mount a stack of containers within the jacket. The stack may also be secured to a second panel of the jacket.
