HPE DL300 GEN10+ 2U 8SFF Sas/sata BC KIT - P26930-B21

HPE P26930-B21 2U 8-Bay SFF SAS/SATA Drive Bay Converter Kit

Overview

The P26930-B21 is a drive bay converter kit designed to provision eight Small Form Factor (SFF) SAS or SATA drive slots in HPE ProLiant DL300 Gen10+ 2U rack servers. If you are expanding storage density on a DL300 Gen10+ platform — whether for surveillance recording, database workloads, or general-purpose data storage — this kit provides the mechanical and backplane infrastructure to populate those bays without sourcing components piecemeal. The 2U rack form factor (15.50 x 11.20 x 6.80 in, 1.90 lb) keeps the assembly manageable during installation and fits the chassis depth of the DL300 Gen10+ family directly. Both SAS and SATA interface standards are supported, giving you flexibility to pair SAS HDDs or SSDs for higher IOPS workloads, or SATA drives where cost-per-TB is the priority.

Compatibility

This kit is designed specifically for the HPE ProLiant DL300 Gen10+ server series in a 2U chassis configuration. It is engineered for the 8SFF (Small Form Factor) bay layout within that platform. Verify your specific DL300 Gen10+ model's configuration guide before ordering — not all DL300 Gen10+ configurations ship with open SFF bays, and this kit targets the 8SFF slot allocation. It is not a universal SFF adapter and should not be assumed compatible with DL300 Gen10 (non-Plus), DL300 Gen9, or other HPE rack server components outside the Gen10+ family.

Installation Notes

The kit ships ready to integrate into a DL300 Gen10+ chassis. At 1.90 lb and 15.50 inches in length, handle the assembly with care during rack work to avoid flex damage to the backplane connectors. SAS and SATA drive compatibility depends on the host bus adapter or storage controller already provisioned in your server — confirm your controller supports the drive type (SAS vs. SATA) before populating bays post-installation. Country of origin spans CN, CZ, JP, MX, and SG, consistent with HPE's global manufacturing footprint for server accessories.
