TL;DR: In this article, a disk drive box is equipped with a heat-absorbing part 40 including a heat pipe, corresponding to heat producing area HP (HP) corresponding to the heat produced by the disk drive.
Abstract: A disk drive box 10 accommodates a plurality of disk drives 20 within a case 11 . A side face of each of the drives 20 is provided with a heat-absorbing part 40 including a heat pipe, corresponding to heat producing area HP. The heat taken away by the heat-absorbing part 40 is transmitted to a heat sink 50 of the rear of a backboard 30 via a heat connector 60 . The heat sink 50 is cooled by cooling air flowing through an air duct 7 . By cooling the drive 20 with the heat pipe, clearances between the drives 20 can be substantially eliminated, and it is made unnecessary to form an opening for air cooling in the backboard 30 . Thus, size reduction is possible, and it is possible to increase the degree of freedom for a wiring pattern formed on the backboard 30.

TL;DR: In this paper, a practical design for a heat pump with heat-pipe photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) collectors is presented, and the hybrid system is called the photoveoltaic solar-assisted heat-pump/heat-pipe (pV-SAHP/HP) system, which was designed to be capable of operating in three different modes, namely, the heatpipe, solar assisted heat pump, and air-source heatpump modes.
