Abstract
A docking device for a hard disk has a protective box housing an electronic unit including a printed circuit card and a fan arranged in or in the vicinity of an opening formed in a first wall of the protective box. The box also has a location for a hard disk. The fan is arranged in the vicinity of an edge of the printed circuit card so that the air stream driven by said fan sweeps over both main faces of the printed circuit card. The guide is designed to guide at least a portion of the air stream driven by the fan directly to the location for a hard disk.
