A canister is for use with a data storage device and a casing of a computer peripheral enclosure with the casing having at least one compartment. Each compartment has a rectangular cross-section and a depth. Each compartment also has two guide rail guides. The canister includes a u-shaped tray and a pair of guide rails. The u-shaped tray also has a pair of side walls. Each guide rail is mechanically coupled to the side walls of the u-shaped tray walls. The data storage device has a pair of side walls each of which has a pair of mounting holes. The canister on the guide rails of the unshaped tray slides freely, but snugly, into the compartment on the guide rail guides. The u shaped tray has a pair of inward-directed protrusions each of which is aligned with one of the mounting holes of the data storage devices so that the storage device can be securely disposed with said u shaped tray.
