Abstract:
1. An electronic module fluidly coupled to a fan to provide airflow thereto, comprising: an enclosure including a front face and a rear face such that airflow enters through the front face and exits through the rear face; an electronic circuit board positioned in the enclosure; a first processor and a second processor mounted to the electronic circuit board, each processor including a front side that receives airflow at a distance from the front face; and a first data storage device and a second data storage device positioned in the enclosure, each data storage device including a front side that receives airflow at the distance from the front face such that the first processor is positioned between the first data storage device and the electronic circuit board and the second processor is positioned between the second data storage device and the electronic circuit board, wherein the first processor and the second processor are positioned such that bypass of airflow between the first processor and the second processor is prevented.
