Computer Case HPE 870213-B21

This adapter kit enables installation of a small form factor (SFF) non-hot-plug (NHP) hard drive into a large form factor (LFF) non-hot-plug drive cage. It provides the necessary mechanical interface so an SFF NHP HDD fits securely in an LFF NHP bay.

Advantages

The kit allows reuse of SFF NHP hard drives in systems designed for LFF NHP bays, reducing the need to replace drive sleds or cages. It preserves drive alignment and mounting points while maintaining the non-hot-plug configuration. The simple mechanical solution minimizes modifications to the existing drive cage.

Key specifications

• Purpose: adapt SFF NHP HDD to LFF NHP drive cage
• Compatibility: SFF non-hot-plug hard drives and LFF non-hot-plug drive bays
• Type: mechanical adapter kit
• Function: provides mounting interface and alignment

How to use

Mount the SFF NHP hard drive into the adapter according to the kit's mounting points, then slide or secure the assembled adapter with drive into the LFF NHP drive cage. Ensure all screws are tightened to maintain alignment and that the drive remains in the non-hot-plug configuration when installed. Follow any system-specific service manual instructions for removing or installing drives to avoid damage.
