A portable terminal device in which a case body performs sliding movement has had a problem that a groove may be exposed to the exterior when the case body is opened to a full extent of sliding amount, which will deteriorate grade of the portable terminal device and sealing ability of the case body, permitting dust or the like to enter the cases. In the portable terminal device according to the present invention in which a front side case is adapted to slide with respect to a back side case, a protruding member in a substantially T-shape in cross section is provided on the front side case, and a guide groove frame is provided on the back side case so as to enclose the protruding member, and a track along which the protruding member is adapted to move is defined in the guide groove frame. When the protruding member is positioned at both ends of the guide groove frame, the protruding member and the guide groove frame are arranged in such positional relation that an entire groove region of the guide groove frame is within an opposed range of the front side case. According to this structure, the groove will not be exposed to the exterior in either state where the case body is closed or opened by sliding, intrusion of dust or the like into the groove will be prevented, and sealing ability of the case body can be improved.

A support slide assembly for a cable management arm includes first and second slide assemblies. The cable management arm is connected between the two slide rails of the first slide assembly. A third pivot member and a sliding member are located between first and second pivot members on two ends of the cable management arm. Two ends of a support slide rail are connected to the first and second slide assemblies respectively. The support rail is retractable by the slidable first and second rods. The first rod has one end pivotably connected to a sliding block which is slidably connected to the first slide assembly. The second rod has one end pivotably connected to the second slide assembly. The sliding member is slidably connected to the support slide rail. When the first slide assembly pulls the cable management arm out, the first and second rods extend relative to each other and form an angle relative to the first and second slide assemblies.

Apparatus for storing data and supplying stored data comprising a main housing containing control circuitry for controlling signals to a plurality of disk drives. The main housing has a plurality of mounting mechanisms each configured to support a unit of a first type. The apparatus further comprises a plurality of cables each having a first connector for connecting to a unit of the first type for providing signals from the control circuitry. The apparatus has a first unit, of a first type, having a plurality of second connectors each connected to a disk drive and a fan providing a flow of air for cooling the disk drives and the control circuitry. The first unit is connected to a first one of the cables and mounted in a first one of the mounting mechanisms such that the first unit is mounted to slide into the main housing. The apparatus also has a second unit, of a second type, supported by a second one of the mounting mechanisms and mounted to slide into the main housing. The second unit is connected to a second one of the cables and has a fan providing a flow of air for cooling the control circuitry. The second unit is removable from the main housing and replaceable by a unit of the first type.
