Description

HPE P80431-B21 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The HPE P80431-B21 is an 8EDSFF (eight-drive small-form-factor expansion) kit designed for the HPE DL580 Gen12 server platform. This kit extends drive capacity in high-density surveillance and data-center environments where NVR storage or redundant archive systems demand multiple 2.5-inch SSD or HDD slots in a compact footprint. Weighs 2.18 lb — critical for rack-mounted deployments where every pound and every U of space has cost implications.

Compatibility

The P80431-B21 integrates with HPE DL580 Gen12 systems — no cross-generation or cross-platform compatibility without explicit HPE documentation. Verify your existing DL580 Gen12 configuration (BIOS version, firmware, slot availability) before ordering. The 8EDSFF form factor accepts standard 2.5-inch enterprise SSDs and HDDs; confirm drive type support through your HPE systems engineer or channel partner before procurement.

Installation Notes

This is a physical kit component requiring proper rack mounting and drive insertion. Ensure power delivery to the expansion module meets HPE specifications for your DL580 Gen12 configuration — undersized PSU or overloaded power rails will throttle performance or trigger failsafe shutdowns. Consult HPE's DL580 Gen12 Installation Guide for slot location, torque specifications, and cable routing. Improper seating of drives can cause intermittent SSD/HDD detection; verify each drive locks fully into the carrier before closing the enclosure.
