An electronic assembly for handling a storage module is provided. The electronic assembly includes an open frame structure having a front frame including a front opening configured to receive air, and two side rails coupled to opposite sides of the front frame. Each side rail includes a side opening and an extended portion. The side opening is configured to direct the air received by the front opening at least partially out of the open frame structure. The extended portion extends from the side opening and away from the front frame and is configured to hold a storage module. The electronic assembly includes a lever bar coupled in proximity to the opposite sides of the front frame and having a lock position that is configured to lock the storage module onto a chassis base and a release position that is configured to release the storage module from the chassis base.

Described herein is a first system that includes sleds each having sidewalls, a mounting plate, and a first cover. The first cover is movable relative to the sidewalls between a closed position and an open position. The first cover includes at least one first opening. The system additionally includes at least one data storage device fixed to each mounting plate. A first air gap is defined between the at least one data storage device and the mounting plate, and a second air gap is defined between the at least one data storage device and the at least one first opening of the first cover. The sleds are stacked together such that the first covers of adjacent sleds are directly adjacent each other, and the at least one first opening of the first cover of one sled at least partially overlaps the at least one first opening of an adjacent sled.

A thermally and structurally optimized disaster resistant housing for a vertically stacked array of computer digital data storage devices such as hard drives is provided. An external, fire resistant housing has an internally mounted water resistant enclosure for the array. The water resistant enclosure includes a plurality of much thicker plates than known which significantly increase dissipation of heat and simultaneously greater increase the crush and impact load resistance of the device. An automatic method is also provided for producing complex molded gypsum or cement components.

In an approach for preventing damage to a tape library, a processor receives a first sensor reading, wherein the first sensor is located within a tape library. A processor receives a second sensor reading, wherein the second sensor is located external to the tape library. A processor determines that the second sensor reading is greater than or equal to the first sensor reading. A processor receives an indication that a door to the tape library is open. Responsive to receiving the indication that the door to the tape library is open, a processor disables a fan.

An apparatus for handling electronic components such as hard disk drives. In one aspect, the apparatus includes a main body defining an interior space with an open front; a drive system that propels and positions the apparatus along horizontal surface; a fan system mounted within the interior space and positioned to blow air down into the interior space; a first gripper apparatus that engages an equipment drawer of an electronics rack; and a second gripper apparatus that grips and removes a target electronic component from a target position located within the equipment drawer, wherein at least a back surface of the main body includes perforations so that sufficient air flow generated by the fan system flows through the perforations to maintain cooling of electronic components in the equipment drawer when the equipment drawer is in the extracted position.

A computer program product for acclimating at least one electronic data storage library component for insertion or removal from an electronic data storage library, the computer program product comprising: one or more computer readable storage media, and program instructions collectively stored on the one or more computer readable storage media. The program instructions include program instructions to insert at least one data storage library component into an acclimation device; to monitor at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device; to determine if the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device meets a predetermined threshold; to adjust the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device; and to remove the at least one electronic data storage library component from the acclimation device in response to determining that the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device meets the predetermined threshold.

A cooling system for cooling a set of components in a compute module and an array of storage devices in a storage module, the array of storage devices comprising rows and columns. The storage module is wider than the compute module to accommodate a larger backplane. The backplane has large vertical vent openings for accommodating connectors of storage devices connecting to the backplane. Pairs of divider walls positioned between adjacent columns of storage devices form large channels for increased airflow between columns of storage devices and reduced airflow between adjacent rows of storage devices. The design allows for increased cooling performance and reduced acoustic energy (noise).

A computer program product for acclimating at least one electronic data storage library component for insertion or removal from an electronic data storage library, the computer program product comprising: one or more computer readable storage media, and program instructions collectively stored on the one or more computer readable storage media. The program instructions include program instructions to insert at least one data storage library component into an acclimation device; to monitor at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device; to determine if the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device meets a predetermined threshold; to adjust the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device; and to remove the at least one electronic data storage library component from the acclimation device in response to determining that the at least one environmental condition within the acclimation device meets the predetermined threshold.

A housing module having a circuit board quick-assembling function is applied to an electronic device with a circuit board having a specific height. The housing module includes a housing, an spacer and two pivoting components. The housing includes a substrate and several lateral boards. The spacer includes a main body, two pivoting portions and a locking portion. The pivoting portions are disposed on corresponding sides of the main body, the locking portion stretches from a lower side of the main body and is fixed on the circuit board via an external fixing component. The pivoting portions pass through the lateral boards and are connected to the pivoting portions. While the circuit board slides relative to the substrate to push the spacer, the main body is rotated inside the housing via the pivoting portions to lift the lower side.

A server capable of rotating and accessing storage devices accommodated therein includes a server chassis, a motherboard, a power supply module, two racks, and a system cooling module. The server chassis includes two side plates and an accommodating space between the two side plates. The power supply module is disposed in the accommodating space and arranged corresponding to the motherboard. The racks are arranged parallel to each other and detachably connected to the server chassis. A pivot structure and a handle for operating the rack are disposed at the rack near the motherboard. The rack is rotatable with respect to the server chassis by means of the pivot structure. The system cooling module is disposed adjacent to the rack. At least one cord passage is provided between the system cooling module and each of the side plates.
