A cooling device is used in an optical recording and/or reproducing apparatus. The optical recording and/or reproducing apparatus is used for writing and/or reading data from the surface of an optical media. The cooling device comprises a grapple and a blower. The grapple is used for holding the optical media. The blower agitates airflow when the grapple rotated. Whereby, the cooling device can decrease the temperature of the air within the optical recording and/or reproducing apparatus.
