My notebook I am currently using has an open hard drive bay, and memory card slot. Thing is I know some of the air flow is going through those spaces. Filling those spaces will let me drop in a TB of storage and double my RAM to the max this notebook is designed for. But it will also add sources of heat where there use to be air flow. Are there any good tips to supplement cooling when filling the remaining voids in a design like this?

And because the battery has hit its charge cycle cap I'm thinking about buying a replacement OEM one. Instead of Refurb considering how the balancing circuit counts the charge cycles then nerfs the performance to avoid risk of catastrophic breakdown.

Should make it so I can work without being tethered to a wall again.
Thoughts suggestion advice on cooling, And this system is temporary until I can somehow save up multiple thousand to make another ideal build. 3D modeling rig.
