I think you are going to have to worry about the heatsink more than anything else. Hard drives will actually take quite a bit of shock--enough to deal with the situation you described. Heat sinks however are quite heavy and are usually only attached with a couple of tabs--imagine what that one pound block of aluminum and copper would do flying around the inside of your case...
