The HPE P48813B21 is a 2U 8SFF Tri-Mode U.3 drive cage kit designed for the ProLiant DL380 Gen11 server. It installs into the chassis to provide eight small form factor drive bays. The kit weighs approximately 4.076 lb and measures 11.26 x 15.51 x 6.77 in. It is supplied new and ready for integration into compatible systems.
Suitable for DL380 Gen11 2U upgrades
This accessory fits administrators expanding storage capacity on an HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 2U server. It is not for owners of other ProLiant models, different chassis heights, or servers from other manufacturers. Buyers needing drive counts beyond eight bays or alternative form factors should look at other chassis options.
Eight-bay 2U small form factor capacity
The decisive specification is the eight small form factor bays in a 2U cage for the DL380 Gen11. Confirm the server model and chassis height match before purchase, as the kit is validated only for that specific platform.
