Hard Drive Cooler Installation Guide
Once mixed, the dual-pack of thermal encapsulate
material will serve as the heat transfer pad between
your drive and the cooling plate. It is not electrically
conductive, and the material can be peeled-off after it
has dried (after 60 hours). Hard drives may be used
while the encapsulate is drying.
CAUTION: Because the encapsulate can only be used once,

!
Koolance recommends formatting and installing software onto a new
hard drive to verify a drive defect before installing the liquid cooler .
Additional thermal packs are available with “second hard drive kits”
from your Koolance reseller.
CAUTION: The original hard drive manufacturer may not honor the
warranty if residue from the encapsulate material remains after
removal. If you have any questions on warranty coverage, please
contact your drive’s manufacturer .
Fold the dual-pack of encapsulate in half, and cut
a corner across, so that both compounds can be
squeezed-out together.
Compress the entire pack over a sheet of paper until
the contents are empty .
Using a spoon or mixing
utensil, stir the
encapsulate like paint
until it is one complete
solid color.

CAUTION: Some hard drives have open spindle motors or other
connections which encapsulate may interfere with. Tape should be
!
placed over these areas before applying the thermal encapsulate.
Using the mixing utensil, apply the encapsulate to the largest heat-producing components:
the spindle motor and primary circuit chips
on the bottom side of the drive.
Use the included screws to mount the
cooler over the encapsulate on the bottom side of the hard drive. The drive may
be mounted into your case via the cooler
or the drive.
