Description

The HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 2LFF Primary Riser Cage Kit adds two Large Form Factor (3.5") drive bays to the rear Primary Riser position of your DL380 Gen11 server, expanding internal storage capacity without external expansion. Supporting both controller-attached (SAS/SATA) and direct-attach (SATA-only via motherboard) configurations, this kit offers deployment flexibility for a range of storage workloads. Compatible exclusively with DL380 Gen11 LFF chassis in 8LFF and 12LFF CTO configurations, with a maximum of one unit per system.

Installation of this cage kit occupies all PCIe slots on the Primary Riser, so plan your expansion card requirements before deployment. It is supported only in LFF chassis variants of the DL380 Gen11, making it essential to verify your server's chassis configuration prior to ordering.

FAQs

Q: Which HPE server is this drive cage kit compatible with?
A: The P48823-B21 is designed exclusively for the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 server. It is only supported in LFF (Large Form Factor) chassis configurations — specifically the 8LFF CTO and 12LFF CTO variants. It is not compatible with SFF chassis or other server generations.

Q: What storage drives can I use with this kit?
A: When connected via a storage controller (e.g. HPE Smart Array), the kit supports both SAS and SATA 3.5" LFF drives. If using the direct-attach mode (connected directly to the motherboard SATA port), only SATA drives are supported — SAS is not available in direct-attach mode.

Q: How many of these kits can I install in a single DL380 Gen11 server?
A: A maximum of one (1) P48823-B21 kit is supported per system. Attempting to install more than one unit is not a supported configuration.

Q: Will installing this kit affect my PCIe expansion card options?
A: Yes. Installing the 2LFF Primary Riser Cage Kit consumes all available PCIe slots on the Primary Riser. If you require PCIe expansion cards in the Primary Riser position, you should plan your configuration carefully before ordering this kit.

Q: Can I buy this kit in Australia and how quickly will it ship?
A: Yes — iptrading.com.au supplies genuine HPE server accessories including the P48823-B21 to businesses across Australia. Contact our team for stock availability, pricing, and fast shipping to your location.

Q: Do I need a storage controller to use this drive cage kit?
A: Not necessarily. The kit supports two modes: controller-attached (requiring a compatible HPE Smart Array or similar controller for SAS/SATA drives) and direct-attach (connecting directly to the motherboard SATA port, supporting SATA drives only without a controller). Choose the mode that suits your storage architecture.
