SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING AND SEALING AIRFLOW AROUND DISK DRIVE BYPASS WALLS

摘要

A seal is formed between bypass walls and a cover for a disk drive to improve control and regulation of airflow in the disk drive. The seal is formed with a gasket comprising a bead of form-in-place gasket between the upper edge of the bypass wall and the cover. The seal also may be formed between the cover and the slit shroud, spoiler, and filter. Minimum compression of the gasket is required to form the seal.
