    摘要: Provided are devices and methods relating to temperature control in a solid state drive (SSD). One embodiment include a SSD including a housing including a plurality of sides surrounding an interior region. The SSD includes at least one vent on the housing, the at least one vent configured to be opened and closed in response to a signal. The SSD also includes a temperature sensor and a controller, the controller configured to send a signal to open the at least one vent when a temperature sensed inside the interior region reaches a first temperature, and the controller configured to close the at least one vent when a temperature sensed inside the interior region reaches a second temperature, wherein the first temperature is greater than the second temperature. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
