Abstract
A drive system. The drive system includes a disk drive component; a disk drive carrier; and drive system heating system, the drive system heating system comprising: a heater component, the heater component being mounted internally within the drive system; and, a tray component, the tray component being mounted to the disk drive carrier of the drive system, the tray component supporting the heater component, and wherein the heater component and the tray component are contained within a standard sized drive system.
Claims18
A drive system, comprising:
- a disk drive carrier, the disk drive carrier comprising a front component, a left side component and a right side component, the front component, the left side component and the right side component defining a substantially U-shaped void;
- a heater component, the heater component being mounted internally within a drive system, the heater component fitting within the substantially U-shaped void of the disk driver carrier;
- and,
- a tray component, the tray component being mounted to the disk drive carrier of the drive system, the tray component including a base portion, a left wall portion and a right wall portion, the tray component supporting the heater component, the heater component extending in a plane horizontally across the base portion of the tray component so as to fit under a disk drive component of the drive system, the tray component being configured to minimally impact standard dimensions associated with the drive system;
- and wherein
- the heater component and the tray component are contained within the drive system.
A drive system comprising:
- a disk drive component;
- a disk drive carrier, the disk drive carrier comprising a front component, a left side component and a right side component, the front component, the left side component and the right side component defining a substantially U-shaped void;
- and,
- a drive system heating system, the drive system heating system comprising:
- a heater component, the heater component being mounted internally within the drive system, the heater component fitting within the substantially U-shaped void of the disk driver carrier;
- and,
- a tray component, the tray component being mounted to the disk drive carrier of the drive system, the tray component including a base portion, a left wall portion and a right wall portion, the tray component supporting the heater component, the heater component extending in a plane horizontally across the base portion of the tray component so as to fit under the disk drive component of the drive system, the tray component being configured to minimally impact standard dimensions associated with the drive system;
- and wherein
- the heater component and the tray component are contained within the drive system.
A system comprising:
