Description

The HPE ProLiant DL580 Gen12 8EDSFF Drive Cage Kit is a purpose-built storage expansion accessory for the DL580 Gen12 four-socket enterprise server, adding an 8-bay EDSFF (E3.S) NVMe drive cage to dramatically increase internal storage density. Designed for modular integration into the DL580 Gen12's box-based storage architecture, this kit supports hot-plug EDSFF NVMe drives and is ideal for organisations requiring high-performance, high-density NVMe storage in mission-critical environments.

The kit integrates seamlessly with the HPE Gen12 ecosystem, supporting UEFI Class 3 firmware and HPE certified drive configurations per HPE's drive configuration matrices. Note that front enablement requires Box 4 to be unoccupied, and front and rear enablement kits cannot be selected together. Maximum drive cage support is limited to 8SFF or 8EDSFF when used with the Universal Media Bay kit and NS204i-u Front Enablement kit.
