Abstract: An information handling system includes an electrical connector to mate with terminals of a data storage device. The system further includes a temperature sensor integrated at the electrical connector. The temperature sensor is arranged to thermally couple to an exterior surface of the data storage device when the data storage device is fully inserted into the electrical connector.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a memory and a controller. The memory stores settings for components within the information handling system. The controller can communicate with the memory. The controller detects a presence of a module, receives parameters of the module from the module, determines information for the module based on the parameters of the module, and updates the settings for the components based on the information for the module.

Abstract: Acoustics management at an information handling system provides reduced acoustic noise with limited performance impact by dynamically changing power dissipation as a function of cooling fan speed and ambient temperature so that preemptive power restrictions prevent excessive thermal conditions that lead to excessive cooling fan speeds and associated acoustics. A maximum cooling fan speed of less than an available maximum is set and maintained by reducing power dissipation unless power dissipation reaches a minimum, after which the minimum power dissipation is maintained and cooling fan speed is allowed to increase.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a system may include a rotational component for moving air, a speed sensor, an electrical draw sensor, and a controller. The speed sensor may configured to determine a speed of the rotational component. The electrical draw sensor may be configured to determine an electrical draw of the air mover. The controller may be communicatively coupled to the rotational component, the speed sensor, and the electrical draw sensor, and may be configured to control the speed of the rotational component based on the speed and the electrical draw.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a blower module assembly may include a housing, a blower mechanically coupled to the housing, and an airflow guide mechanically coupled between the housing and the blower. The blower may be mechanically coupled to the housing, may have an intake and an exhaust, and may be configured to move air from the intake to the exhaust. The airflow guide may be mechanically coupled between the housing and the blower, may have a solid region and a plenum region such that the border between the solid region and the plenum region is defined by a portion of an arcuate cylinder. The housing, the blower, and the airflow guide may be arranged such that a plenum is defined by surfaces of the housing, the blower, and the portion of the arcuate cylinder, the plenum adjacent to the intake.
