Drive bias and damping for trayless disk drive enclosures |
| 摘要 |
A disk drive enclosure may comprise a tray-less chassis comprising a backplane and defining an opening configured to receive a disk drive. A door may be coupled to the tray-less chassis and configured to enclose the disk drive within the opening when the door is closed. An elastomeric element may be configured to bias the disk drive against the backplane when the door is closed and may be further configured to provide damping so as to dissipate energy imparted to the tray-less chassis during the operation of the disk drive. |

1. A disk drive enclosure, comprising;
a tray-less chassis comprising a backplane and defining an opening configured to receive a disk drive; a door coupled to the tray-less chassis and configured to enclose the disk drive within the opening when the door is closed, and an elastomeric element, the elastomeric element being configured to bias the disk drive against the backplane when the door is closed and to provide damping and heat dissipation through the elastomeric element having a loss modulus that is higher than a loss modulus of steel so as to dissipate energy imparted to the tray-less chassis during an operation of the disk drive. |
