[SOLVED] Identify Mystery Part from Mac Pro 2013

[creativeguru]

Does anyone know what is this part? It came out of a 2013 Mac Pro? I can't identify it. My guess is it is some sort of clip on the inside of the external housing that came off. Is important? Please help.

That looks like the slot for the Kensington lock.

Ah... you might be right. Didn't think about that. Thanks!

[UPDATE] Thanks for the help. It is a Kensington lock clip for the Mac Pro.

Never a good sign when you put something back together and there are extra parts. Glad you figured it out!

It's an optional add-on you can purchase. The clip attaches to the bottom of the case. Pretty funny to think of someone trying to walk out with a "trash can" under their jacket. Uh, no.... there's nothing in my jacket 🙂
