Abstract

See full text

A fire resistant enclosure for a data storage device is provided. The enclosure includes an enclosure base comprising a base cap and a base body. The base body includes a bottom wall having a side wall extending upwardly therefrom defining a base cavity. The data storage device is positioned within the cavity. A fire resistant insulation material is positioned within the base cavity to encapsulate the data storage device. The base cap is coupled with the base body to enclose the data storage device within the enclosure base. The insulation material may be in intimate contact with the data storage device, or in contact with a moisture barrier surrounding the data storage device, wherein the insulation material acts as a heat sink for said data storage device to draw heat away from the data storage device to maintain a temperature of the data storage device within an acceptable operating range.
