摘要:
A novel information storage device is disclosed and claimed. The information storage device includes a disk drive, a disk drive printed circuit board, and a first conductive shield over the disk drive printed circuit board and electrically coupled to the disk drive. The information storage device also includes a bridge controller printed circuit board and a second conductive shield over and electrically coupled to the bridge controller printed circuit board. The first and second conductive shields are in direct contact with each other. A disk drive interface connector electrically couples the bridge controller printed circuit board with the disk drive printed circuit board. A third conductive shield is attached to the disk drive interface connector and is in direct contact with both the first and second conductive shields.
摘要:
A novel information storage device has a disk drive, a disk drive support structure adapted to maintain the disk drive base in a substantially vertical position, and an electrically conductive shield attached to the disk drive base. The electrically conductive shield is disposed adjacent and overlying the disk drive printed circuit board. The electrically conductive shield includes a fan mounting surface having a fan duct opening disposed adjacent an upper end of the electrically conductive shield, and a lower air inlet opening disposed adjacent a lower end of the electrically conductive shield. The information storage device includes no fan and no fan is attached to the fan mounting surface. The electrically conductive shield forms a continuous internal air passageway from the lower air inlet opening to the fan duct opening.
摘要:
An electromagnetic shield for a storage device comprising a printed circuit board (PCBA) defining a plated through hole defining a generally cylindrical plated surface. The electromagnetic shield may comprise a top surface and sides oriented generally perpendicular to the top surface. One or more of the sides comprise a press-fit connector configured for removable insertion in the plated through hole. The press-fit connector may comprise at least one resilient member defining a longitudinal axis and configured to resiliently bow out in a direction generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis during insertion and press against the plated surface of the through hole to displace plating material formed thereon to form a gas-tight seal between the at least one resilient member and the plated surface.
