Description

The HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 2SFF x4 Tri-Mode 24G U.3 BC Drive Cage Kit is a storage expansion accessory designed specifically for the 1U DL320 Gen11 server platform. It adds two Small Form Factor (2.5") drive bays with x4 Tri-Mode U.3 backplane connectivity, enabling simultaneous support for NVMe, SAS, and SATA drives from a single backplane — giving IT teams maximum flexibility when configuring internal storage for demanding workloads.

With 24Gbps interface speed and x4 PCIe lane connectivity per drive, this cage kit delivers the throughput needed for high-performance NVMe storage deployments while retaining compatibility with existing SAS and SATA drive inventories. The Basic Carrier (BC) bay design integrates cleanly within the DL320 Gen11 chassis, and the cage can be combined with an 8SFF drive cage under a single controller for expanded capacity. Note that the HPE 2SFF TM Cable Kit (P52776-B21) is required when used with a PCIe Internal or OROC controller. In stock and ready to ship from iptrading.com.au — order now for fast dispatch.

FAQs

Q: Which server is this drive cage kit compatible with?
A: The P52751-B21 is designed exclusively for the HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 server. It is not compatible with other ProLiant generations or platforms.

Q: What drive types does the x4 Tri-Mode U.3 backplane support?
A: The Tri-Mode U.3 backplane supports NVMe, SAS, and SATA drives from a single backplane, giving you the flexibility to mix drive types or migrate between protocols without changing the cage.

Q: Do I need any additional components to use this drive cage kit?
A: Yes — when used with a PCIe Internal or OROC controller, you will also require the HPE 2SFF TM Cable Kit (P52776-B21). Check your controller type before ordering to ensure you have all necessary components.

Q: Can this cage kit be used alongside other drive cages in the DL320 Gen11?
A: Yes. The 2SFF cage can be combined with an 8SFF drive cage in the DL320 Gen11 chassis, both managed through a single controller, allowing you to maximise internal storage capacity.

Q: Can I purchase this drive cage kit in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading stocks the HPE P52751-B21 and ships from Australia. Order online at iptrading.com.au for fast local dispatch with no international shipping delays.

Q: What is the performance advantage of x4 PCIe lane connectivity per drive?
A: x4 PCIe lane connectivity delivers full-bandwidth NVMe performance per drive, avoiding the bottlenecks associated with x1 or x2 lane configurations — making this cage well-suited for storage-intensive or latency-sensitive workloads.
