A test slot cooling system for a storage device testing system includes a storage device transporter having first and second portions. The first portion of the storage device transporter includes an air director and the second portion of the storage device transporter is configured to receive a storage device. The test slot cooling system includes a test slot housing defining an air entrance and a transporter opening for receiving the storage device transporter. The air entrance is in pneumatic communication with the air director of the received storage device transporter. The test slot cooling system also includes an air mover in pneumatic communication with the air entrance of the test slot housing for delivering air to the air director. The air director directs air substantially simultaneously over at least top and bottom surfaces of the storage device received in the storage device transporter.
1. A method of regulating a temperature of a storage device in a storage device testing system, the method comprising: receiving an air flow into an air entrance of a test slot housing;splitting the received air flow into a first air flow and a second air flow;directing, at a substantially simultane
1. A method of regulating a temperature of a storage device in a storage device testing system, the method comprising: receiving an air flow into an air entrance of a test slot housing;splitting the received air flow into a first air flow and a second air flow;directing, at a substantially simultaneous time, the first air flow over at least a top surface of the storage device and the second air flow over at least a bottom surface of the storage device; anddirecting the air flow to an air mover of a test slot cooling system of the storage device testing system, wherein the air mover is configured for pneumatic communication with the air entrance of the test slot housing;wherein the air mover is configured to deliver the air flow into the air entrance of the test slot housing, the air flow moving along a closed loop path through the test slot housing and the test slot cooling system. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising delivering the air flow to an air director that is configured to direct the air flow over at least the top and bottom surfaces of the storage device. 3. The method of claim 2, further comprising: supporting the storage device in a storage device transporter received in the test slot housing;wherein the storage device transporter comprises first and second portions, the first portion comprises the air director, and the second portion is configured to receive the storage device;wherein the storage device comprises the top surface, the bottom surface, a front surface, a rear surface, a right surface, and a left surface; andwherein the storage device is configured to be received with the rear surface of the storage device substantially facing the first portion of the storage device transporter. 4. The method of claim 2, further comprising: delivering the air flow into an air entrance of the air director;wherein the air director is configured to direct the air flow received through the air entrance out first and second air exits of the air director;wherein the first air exit is configured to direct the air flow over at least the bottom surface of the storage device received in the storage device testing system; andwherein the second air exit is configured to direct the air flow over at least the top surface of the storage device received in the storage device testing system. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein: the air director defines a cavity configured for pneumatic communication with the air entrance and the first and the second air exits of the air director;the air director comprises a plenum disposed in the cavity; andthe plenum is configured to direct at least a portion of air received in the cavity out of the first air exit. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving the air flow into the air mover along a first direction and delivering the air flow to the air entrance of the test slot housing along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising directing the air flow over an air cooler disposed in an air flow path upstream of the air mover. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising delivering the air flow into the air entrance of the test slot housing at an air flow rate of up to about 0.122 m3/min (4.308 CFM) and an air pressure of up to about 20.88 mmH2O (0.822 inchH2O). 9. A method comprising: receiving, in an air cavity of an air director in a test slot housing, an air flow;circulating the air flow along an air path, circulating comprising: directing the air flow out of a first air exit of the air director;directing the air flow out of a second exit of the air director;causing, based on directing the air flow out of the first air exit, the air flow: to be directed over a top surface of a storage device received in a storage device testing system, the air flow being directed in a direction parallel to the top surface of the storage device; andto traverse a length of the storage device along the top surface of the storage device; andcausing, based on directing the air flow out of the second air exit, the air flow: to be directed, in the same direction, over a bottom surface of the storage device;to be directed over the bottom surface of the storage device (i) in parallel with the air flow being directed over the top surface of the storage device, and (ii) without recirculation of the air flow over the storage device prior to sending the air flow to an air cooler; andto traverse the length of the storage device along the bottom surface of the storage device;wherein circulating provides substantially even cooling of the storage device; andsending the air flow to the air cooler, the air cooler being configured (i) to cool the air flow, and (ii) to return the air flow to the air director for recirculation of the air flow over the storage device. 10. The method of claim 9, further comprising: directing the air flow to an air mover configured for pneumatic communication with an air entrance of the test slot housing;wherein the air mover is configured to deliver the air flow into the air entrance of the test slot housing, the air flow moving along a closed loop path in the test slot housing. 11. The method of claim 9, further comprising receiving the air flow into the air mover along a first direction and delivering the air flow to the air entrance of the test slot housing along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. 12. The method of claim 9, further comprising: supporting the storage device in a storage device transporter received in the test slot housing;wherein the storage device transporter comprises first and second portions, the first portion comprises the air director, and the second portion is configured to receive the storage device;wherein the storage device comprises the top surface, the bottom surface, a front surface, a rear surface, a right surface, and a left surface; andwherein the storage device is configured to be received with the rear surface of the storage device substantially facing the first portion of the storage device transporter. 13. The method of claim 9, wherein: the air cavity is configured for pneumatic communication with an air entrance of the air director and the first and the second air exits of the air director;the air director comprises a plenum disposed in the air cavity; andthe plenum is configured to direct at least a portion of air received in the air cavity out of the first air exit. 14. The method of claim 10, further comprising directing the air flow over the air cooler disposed in an air flow path upstream of the air mover. 15.
