ABSTRACT:
A computer system including a plurality of air circulation areas to facilitate cooling of components with in the air circulation areas. Specifically, the system includes an air circulation area for a plurality of printed circuit boards, for a power supply, and for a plurality of internal and external peripherals, such as disk drives. The system also includes an automatic door that covers the external peripherals. The external peripherals slide forward, out of a casing of the system to facilitate upgrade and/or repair of the peripherals. In addition, the system includes cabling slots and structure to effect electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.
