A screwless hard drive mounting in a computer system includes first and second interconnectable brackets. The first bracket is rigidly mounted on the computer chassis and provides a releasable engagement with the hard drive. The second bracket is movably mounted on the chassis and provides a releasable engagement with the hard drive and also provides a releasable engagement with the first bracket. A resilient member is mounted on the first bracket to releasably engage the hard drive and provide a preload between the hard drive and the first bracket. The resilient member further provides electrical grounding and vibration damping.
