Abstract
A data storage device includes a heat source including a memory, and an enclosure within which the heat source is installed. The data storage device also includes a heat spreader within the enclosure and surrounding the heat source. The data storage device further includes a thermal interface material within the enclosure. The thermal interface material is coupled to the heat source and to the heat spreader, thereby providing a first low thermal resistance path between the heat source and the heat spreader. A phase change material is coupled to the thermal interface material such that the thermal interface material provides a second low thermal resistance path between the heat source and the phase change material.
