Vszerda Drive Bracket 651687-001 651699-001 2.5" Caddy 2 Pack

SKU CH-GF2D-G7BRS

Two 2.5" drive caddies with mounting screws for HP ProLiant Gen8 and G9 servers

  • Fits HP ProLiant Gen8 and G9 servers
  • Two 2.5-inch drive trays included
  • Eight mounting screws supplied
  • Heat-dissipating metal construction protects drives
  • Accurate mounting holes enable quick installation

Compatible HP ProLiant Servers

This drive bracket fits a wide range of HP ProLiant Gen8 and G9 servers, including DL160, DL320e, DL360e, DL360p, DL380e, DL380p, DL385p, DL560, DL120, DL350, ML310e, ML350e and ML350p models. It also supports BL420c, BL460c, BL465c, BL660c, SL230s, SL250s and WS460c blade and scale-out systems. The tray accepts 2.5 inch drives for direct hot-plug installation. Buyers using servers outside these listed families will need a different caddy.

Replacing Worn or Missing Caddies

The bracket replaces damaged, lost or bent original trays that prevent a drive from seating correctly in the hot-plug backplane. Upgrading makes sense when the existing caddy latch is broken, the guide rails are deformed or the screw threads are stripped. It is not for converting 3.5 inch bays or adapting non-hot-plug chassis. Servers that require a different part number or form factor cannot use this tray.

Tool-Less Installation with Included Screws

Each pack contains two trays and eight mounting screws matched to the drive mounting holes. Align the drive, secure the screws and slide the assembly into the bay until the latch clicks. The most common issue is over-tightening the screws, which can strip the drive threads or warp the tray. Ensure the latch engages fully; a partial seat will cause the server to report a missing drive.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5" caddy fit the drive bays in my HP Proliant DL380p Gen8?

Yes — the bracket carries part numbers 651687-001 and 651699-001, which are listed as compatible with DL380p Gen8 and a wide range of other Gen8 and G9 Proliant models.

Which screws do I use to secure the SSD inside the tray, and where do they go?

Eight mounting screws are included; use four per drive, threading them through the side holes of the caddy into the SSD’s standard mounting points.

Do the plastic latch or metal rails on the caddy wear out and need periodic replacement?

The caddy is described as a durable, sturdy metal tray with no moving latch mechanism, so no routine replacement parts are expected.
