Overview

The HPE 726536-B21 is a 9.5mm SATA DVD-ROM drive kit designed for integration into specific HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers. This accessory provides essential optical media read capability, enabling firmware updates, operating system installations, and software deployments via CD/DVD media. It's a direct replacement or upgrade component for servers that require optical drive functionality but lack it as standard.

Compatibility

This kit is specifically designed for HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers that support a 9.5mm SATA slim-type optical drive. Verify your server's technical specifications or chassis documentation for compatibility. It is not compatible with Gen8 or Gen10 servers, nor with standard 5.25-inch bay drives.

Installation Notes

Installation requires opening the server chassis and connecting the drive via the SATA interface and a power connector (typically provided by the server motherboard or backplane). The drive measures 9.5mm in height. Ensure proper seating of the SATA data and power connectors. The kit includes the drive and necessary mounting hardware for its specific bay type.
