ABSTRACT:
A plate formed with louvers and a depression to heat engage a hard disk drive motor is attached to such a drive. Heat from the motor is transferred to the plate. The louvers dissipate heat especially if they are in the path of a blower. The plate also protects the user from contact with drive components if touched during installation or removal of the drive while the drive is connected to a computer while electrically energized.
