The frame includes sidewalls (418, 425a, 425b, 429a, 429b) configured to receive a storage device there between and sized to be inserted into a test slot along with a storage device. The frame also includes a clamping mechanism (450) operatively associated with at least one of the sidewalls. The clamping mechanism includes a first engagement element (476, 700, 750) and a first actuator (454, 710, 760) operable to initiate movements of the first engagement element. The first actuator is operable to move the first engagement element into engagement with a test slot after a storage device being supported by the frame is arranged in a test position in a test slot.
