Abstract: Embodiments may be directed to a codesigned shroud for a chassis comprising a plurality of components and a plurality of fans generating a plurality of airflows to cool the plurality of components. The codesigned shroud may have a plurality of walls defining a plurality of channels, wherein at least two walls of the plurality of walls define each channel of the plurality of channels. Each channel may be aligned with a direction of an airflow of the plurality of airflows. At least one channel includes a set of baffles oriented substantially perpendicular to the direction of an airflow in the channel. Each baffle may be formed with acoustically absorbent material to absorb acoustic energy that could affect performance of a component, wherein a first baffle of the set of baffles is offset from a second baffle of the set of baffles.

Abstract: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems may comprise a system for reducing acoustic energy in a chassis, the system comprising an acoustically absorbent material configured to fill a volume in the chassis between a set of fans and a set of components. A plurality of ducts formed in the acoustically absorbent material prevents turbulent shedding around obstacles and areas of recirculation to streamline the airflows and the acoustically absorbent material absorbs acoustic energy traveling through the ducts.

Abstract: Embodiments may be generally directed to a system for generating reactive acoustic energy for reducing acoustic noise in a chassis of an information handling system. A set of acoustically reactive elements may be positioned relative to a backplane comprising a plurality of backplane openings. Each acoustically reactive element comprises a plurality of walls and an acoustical energy reducing opening. The plurality of walls define an internal volume, wherein at least one wall is aligned parallel with a direction of airflow.

For example, the information indication assembly may include at least one light emitter; multiple conductors coupled to the at least one light emitter; a pin that includes a rigid material and that permits the first plurality of conductors to pass through; and a grommet that includes an elastic material and configured to house the pin. In one instance, the pin and the grommet may be aligned along a longitudinal axis of the information indication assembly. In a second instance the pin and the grommet form a fastener of a fan associated with the information handling system. In another instance, the elastic material may mitigate vibrations from the fan. In one or more embodiments, a printed circuit board may include the multiple conductors. For example, the printed circuit board may be a flexible printed circuit board.

Abstract: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, one or more methods, and/or one or more processes may: determine a first value associated with vibrations within an information handling system (IHS); determine that the first value meets or exceeds a first threshold value; after determining that the first value meets or exceeds the first threshold value: receive first data to store via at least one hard disk drive; and store the first data via at least one solid state memory medium; determine a second value associated with vibrations within the IHS; determine that the second value does not meet or exceed the first threshold value; and in response to determining that the second value does not meet or exceed the first threshold value: retrieve the first data from the at least one solid state memory medium; and store the first data via the at least one hard disk drive.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a baseboard management controller (BMC) and a cooling module that receives a control signal from the BMC. The cooling module includes an air mover assembly, and a foam gasket that is disposed in between the air mover assembly and the bulkhead. A cam assembly has a cam lever holder that draws in a compression bracket to provide axial stress to the air mover assembly, a bulkhead, and the foam gasket.

Abstract: An enhanced airflow chassis system includes a component chassis that defines a chassis enclosure including a chassis entrance and component slots. First component carriers are mounted to first components and positioned in each of the component slots. Each first component carrier defines first component carrier airflow apertures that direct airflow entering the chassis entrance to the first component mounted to that first component carrier. A backplane located in the chassis enclosure opposite the component slots from the chassis entrance defines backplane airflow apertures and includes a component connector located adjacent each of the component slots that is connected to the first component mounted to the component carrier positioned in that component slot.
