HP Gen8 2.5" SAS SATA Caddy
This tray replaces HP part numbers 651687001 and 651699001 in Gen8 servers including ML350p, DL360e, DL320e, DL380e, SL270 and S230. It accepts both 2.5" SAS and SATA hard drives. The metal construction secures the drive in the chassis. Tool-free installation simplifies storage expansion or replacement.
Upgrade From Missing Or Damaged Trays
The caddy fills empty drive bays or swaps out broken originals without requiring new server hardware. It is worth fitting when a bay lacks a carrier or when an existing carrier no longer locks the drive securely. Servers that already have working trays in every populated bay gain no benefit from extras.
Dual Interface Drive Capacity
Each tray holds one 2.5" SAS or SATA drive up to the server's supported limit. It runs out of headroom when the chassis bays are fully populated or when the workload demands drive types or form factors this carrier cannot accept.
