A data storage library includes a drive enclosure bay which can be adapted to work with multiple air-flow configuration requirements. This is accomplished by creating air-flow ports in the top and bottom of the drive enclosure bay, by forming drive tray slots and printed circuit board ports in associated drive trays, by creating frame ports and PCB notches in associated interface cards, and replacing traditional connectors with slimmer but longer connectors that provide additional standoff and improved air-flow.

A cooling system for cooling a device in a computer system includes a plurality of cooling fans positioned in series. Each cooling fan includes a hub and at least one fan blade connected to the hub. The fan blade rotates relative to the hub about a substantially radially extending axis and between at least a first position and a second position. Drag to a flow of fluid through the cooling system by the fan blade in the second position is less than drag to the flow of fluid through the cooling system by the fan blade in the first position. Upon the hub rotating within the cooling fan, the fan blade is in the first position, and upon the hub stationary within the cooling fan, the fan blade is in the second position. The cooling system also includes a biasing member connected to the fan blade and the hub that biases the fan blade towards the second position.

Cold plate apparatuses and methods of fabrication are provided for facilitating cooling of an electronics component. The fabrication approach includes: forming a tube with a first metal and having first and second ends with a heat transfer region disposed therebetween; positioning the heat transfer region of the tube within a mold and casting a heat sink member around the tube by contacting a second metal in molten form over the tube, wherein the first and second metals react peritectically to form an alloy layer between the tube and the heat sink member, and a metallurgical bond is formed between the tube and heat sink member with cooling of the molten second metal; and controlling casting of the heat sink member to minimize a thickness of the alloy layer to enhance a heat transfer characteristic of the metallurgical bond formed between the tube and the heat sink member.
