HPE DL380 Gen9 Rear Hard Drive Backplane Description
The HPE 779979-001 / 729833-001 Rear Hard Disk Backplane Kit is designed to add three additional 3.5-inch drive bays at the rear of the DL380 Gen9 server. This provides organizations with flexible storage options for system boot drives, RAID configurations, or additional data storage.
The backplane acts as the central connection interface between the drives and the server’s RAID or SAS controller, ensuring stable data transfer and power distribution. With support for SAS and SATA drives, the backplane enables organizations to deploy high-capacity enterprise HDDs or SSDs based on workload requirements.
Rear drive cages are particularly useful in enterprise deployments where administrators want to separate operating system drives from primary storage arrays or add backup drives without affecting front drive bay configurations.
