A temperature control, apparatus for a hard disk drive and a method of varying the temperature of a hard disk drive

摘要

A temperature control apparatus for a hard disk drive includes a thermal chamber for receiving the hard disk drive. The apparatus also includes an oscillatory air movement generator for generating air movement within a region between the thermal chamber and the hard disk drive when the hard disk is received in the thermal chamber, thereby to facilitate heat transfer between the thermal chamber and the hard disk drive.
