3.5COOLING
Cabinet cooling must be designed by the customer so that the ambient temperature immediately surrounding the drive will not exceed temperature conditions specified in Section 2.8.1, "Temperature."
The rack, cabinet, or drawer environment for the drive must provide heat removal. You should confirm that adequate heat removal is provided using the temperature measurement guidelines described in Section 2.8.1.
Forced air flow may be required to keep temperatures at or below the temperatures specified in Section 2.8.1 in which case the drive should be oriented, or air flow directed, so that the least amount of air flow resistance is created while providing air flow to the drive. Also, the shortest possible path between the air inlet and exit should be chosen to minimize the travel length of air heated by the drive and other heat sources within the rack, cabinet, or drawer environment.
If forced air is determined to be necessary, possible
