A mounting apparatus includes a bracket (30), a retainer (50), and a slider (60). The bracket is for receiving a storage device (10) therein and includes a first sidewall (34) defining two pairs of apertures (344) therein. The slider is slidably attached to the first sidewall and includes two pairs of slideways (644), and a pair of resilient arms (623). The retainer is sandwiched between the first sidewall of the bracket and the slider and abutted against by the resilient arms. The retainer includes two pairs of posts (56) sliding along the slideways, and two pairs of pins (54) extending through the apertures to engage the storage device.
