Synology D8 2.5/3.5 inch Disk Tray Bezel Panel Black

The Synology DISK TRAY (TYPE D8) is a bezel panel compatible with both 2.5" and 3.5" drives, finished in black for a discreet appearance. It measures 172 mm (W) x 118 mm (D) x 28 mm (H) and is intended to simplify drive installation and secure mounting within a 4-bay enclosure that uses the 18~ series tray form factor.

Advantages

The tray provides a universal mounting solution for 2.5" and 3.5" hard drives and SSDs, offering tool-less snap-in or screw-secure installation depending on your enclosure. Its black bezel improves the visual uniformity of multi-bay storage units while maintaining a compact profile. Designed by Synology, the tray is built to fit compatible systems and to facilitate easy drive replacement or expansion.

Suitable for

• Replacing or expanding drive bays in Synology-compatible 4-bay enclosures (18~ series)
• Mounting 2.5" SSDs or 3.5" HDDs in a single bezel panel
• Maintaining neat front-panel appearance in small NAS or storage chassis
