Two-pack caddy for PowerEdge G11-G13

This two-pack 2.5-inch drive caddy matches Dell part number 8FKXC and 08FKXC for plug-and-play installation. It accepts standard 2.5-inch SAS and SATA SSDs or HDDs and ships with the required mounting screws. The rugged metal build is designed for long-term operation in datacentre racks and towers. Server administrators handling RAID expansion or spare replacement can deploy both trays at once.

Replaces missing or damaged Dell trays

When a factory caddy is lost or bent during maintenance, this OEM-equivalent restores the correct drive alignment without modification. The jump is worth it whenever a server bay needs a second 2.5-inch drive and the original carrier is unavailable. Builders who need a 3.5-inch form factor or tool-less latch mechanism cannot use this tray.

Sustained load in multi-drive arrays

In a populated chassis the metal frame conducts heat away from each drive during continuous RAID rebuilds or backup windows. Screw-secured mounting prevents vibration-induced disconnects when multiple spindles spin simultaneously. The tray adds no active cooling of its own, so airflow must come from the server fans. Environments that exceed the server’s rated inlet temperature are outside the design envelope.

Questions about this item

Does the 2.5" caddy fit the drive bays in a Dell PowerEdge R720?

Yes, the tray is an exact OEM match for Dell part 8FKXC and fits the R720 among other PowerEdge G11 through G13 rack and tower servers.

What screws do I use to secure the SSD inside the tray, and which step is often missed?

The pack includes the required mounting screws; the step often missed is fastening all four screws so the drive cannot shift during hot-swap insertion.

Will the metal tray itself need replacement after repeated drive swaps?

The rugged metal construction is built for long-term datacenter use and does not have a scheduled replacement interval.
