24-bay 2.5-inch storage enclosure

The Dell PowerEdge 3820F is a 24-bay 2.5-inch storage enclosure designed for rack-mounted capacity expansion. It ships as a barebone chassis without drives or compute modules, allowing IT teams to populate bays with preferred media. A dual-controller architecture provides redundant data paths for continuous availability. Dual 600W power supplies add further resilience for production environments.

Dual-controller redundancy and open drive choice

Organisations needing high-availability shared storage with flexible media selection will benefit from the dual-controller design and empty drive bays. Buyers who require integrated compute, pre-configured RAID, or larger 3.5-inch drive support should consider alternative platforms.

24 x 2.5-inch drive bays

The chassis accepts exactly 24 small-form-factor drives, defining the maximum raw capacity and physical density achievable in a single 2U enclosure. Matching this bay count to the planned drive quantity determines whether the unit fits the storage footprint.

Questions about this item

What type of drives fit the 24 bays in the 3820F?

The 3820F has 24 drive bays that accept 2.5-inch drives; you supply the drives yourself.

Will the dual-controller setup in the 3820F work with my existing storage network?

The dual-controller design provides redundant paths so the enclosure stays online if one controller fails.

How can I verify both 600W power supplies are active after installation?

Each power supply has status LEDs; green on both units confirms they are sharing the load.
