Abstract: Methods and systems for thermal management of hardware resources that may be used to provide computer implemented services are disclosed. The disclosed thermal management method and systems may improve the likelihood of data processing systems providing desired computer implemented services by improving the thermal management of the hardware resources without impairment of storage devices. To improve the likelihood of the computer implemented services being provided, the systems may proactively identify whether storage devices subject to impairment due to dynamic motion are present. If such storage devices are present, then the system may automatically take action to reduce the likelihood of the storage devices being subject to dynamic motion sufficient to impair their operation.

Abstract: An air mover assembly may include an air mover comprising a body and a cable extending from the body and one or more air mover holders mechanically coupled to the body. The one or more air mover holders may comprise a plurality of cable maintenance features and a keying feature. The plurality of cable maintenance features may include a first cable maintenance feature configured to maintain the cable in a first configuration of the air mover in a first airflow direction and a second cable maintenance feature configured to maintain the cable in a second configuration of the air mover in a second airflow direction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a profile-modeling cable clip for sealing airflow in an Information Handling System (IHS) chassis. In some embodiments, a profile-modeling cable clip for sealing airflow in an IHS chassis may include a base and a plurality of comb teeth coupled to the base via spring elements, where each of the comb teeth is independently compressible.

Abstract: An information handling system may include a backplane configured to couple at a first side thereof to a plurality of physical storage resources, an air mover configured to provide cooling to the information handling system, and a shelf coupled to the backplane at a second, opposite side thereof, wherein the shelf is disposed between the first side of the backplane and the air mover. The shelf may include an acoustically absorbent material.

Abstract: Dual operation centrifugal fan apparatus and methods of operating same that may be used, for example, to cool the internal heat-generating components of an information handling system or other device. The dual operation centrifugal fan apparatus may be implemented in one embodiment as a self-cleaning blower apparatus that is operated in a first normal cooling direction to dissipate heat from internal components of an information handling system, and operated in second cleaning direction to reverse airflow and expel accumulated dust from the interior of the information handling system.

Abstract: As an air mover assembly is translated from a first orientation to a second orientation, a first roller and a second roller translate about at least one rail such that the a frame and a door maintain a position relative to the direction of the force of gravity.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a component portion and a cooling portion. The component portion includes one or more components of the information handling system. The cooling portion includes a cooling fan and a baffle. The cooling fan provides air flow to the components. The baffle being movable between a first position and a second position to change an area available for the air flow to the components. The baffle is in the first position in response to only a first one of the components being located within the component portion, and the baffle is in the second position in response to both the first component and a second one of the components being located within the component portion.
