HPE 878364-B21 DL580 Gen10 Premium 6SFF and 2 NVMe or 8SFF Bay Kit

Brand:
HPE

HPE 878364-B21 is a premium drive-bay kit for the HPE ProLiant DL580 Gen10. It provides a flexible front storage configuration supporting either six SFF drives with two NVMe drives or an 8SFF configuration, depending on the supported server setup. HPE lists it as a DL580 Gen10 unique option and documents its use across Boxes 1, 2, and 3. This makes it a targeted storage-expansion component for enterprise servers requiring a configurable mix of conventional SFF and NVMe storage.

OVERVIEW

  • HPE 878364-B21 is the DL580 Gen10 Premium 6SFF and 2 NVMe or 8SFF Bay Kit, providing a configurable storage-bay option for enterprise DL580 Gen10 deployments. Compatibility: HPE ProLiant DL580 Gen10; supported in Boxes 1, 2, and 3 subject to configuration. Model comparison: 878364-B21 provides the 6SFF + 2 NVMe or 8SFF option, while 878362-B21 is the separate 8-NVMe SSD Express Bay option.

USE CASES

  • Mixed SFF and NVMe storage deployments – Provides a documented bay option for configurations requiring six SFF drives alongside two NVMe drives, giving buyers a practical combination of conventional and high-speed storage.
  • Enterprise database infrastructure – The 6SFF + 2 NVMe configuration can support architectures where conventional storage and NVMe storage are assigned to different workload tiers, subject to the selected drives and controller architecture.
  • Virtualization platforms – Provides a flexible drive-bay foundation for DL580 Gen10 virtualization hosts where storage requirements vary between capacity-oriented SFF drives and NVMe workloads.
  • High-performance application servers – Supports configurations that need dedicated NVMe connectivity alongside SFF storage within the same DL580 Gen10 platform.
  • Storage-capacity expansion – The 8SFF configuration provides a different bay arrangement for deployments prioritizing SFF drive count rather than the mixed 6SFF + 2 NVMe layout. 
  • DL580 Gen10 infrastructure refreshes – Gives existing or planned DL580 Gen10 deployments a platform-specific storage-bay expansion path without selecting a generic drive cage.
  • Tiered storage architectures – Enables buyers to plan different storage media types within the supported DL580 Gen10 bay configuration, depending on workload and performance requirements.
  • Enterprise procurement standardization – HPE option number 878364-B21 provides a precise BOM and sourcing identifier for DL580 Gen10 storage configurations.

KEY FEATURES

  • 6SFF + 2 NVMe configuration – Provides a documented combination of six SFF drive positions and two NVMe positions, giving storage architects greater flexibility for mixed-media workloads. 
  • Alternative 8SFF configuration – HPE identifies the same option as supporting either 6SFF + 2 NVMe or 8SFF, allowing the bay configuration to be matched to the deployment's storage priorities. 
  • Premium drive-bay design – Provides a dedicated HPE DL580 Gen10 bay option, reducing uncertainty compared with attempting to integrate an unspecified third-party drive cage.
  • Supports NVMe storage – Adds two NVMe drive positions in the applicable 6SFF + 2 NVMe configuration, providing an option for workloads where lower-latency storage is required.
  • Supports SFF storage – Six SFF positions in the mixed configuration provide capacity and storage-media flexibility alongside the NVMe positions.
  • Multi-box deployment support – HPE documents the 6SFF + 2 NVMe drive option as available in Boxes 1, 2, and 3, subject to the overall server configuration. 
  • Configuration-aware storage expansion – HPE specifies that maximum NVMe support depends on processor, box, drive bay, and riser selection, helping engineering teams avoid unsupported drive combinations. 
  • HPE-specific option identification – Part number 878364-B21 gives procurement teams a precise reference for quotes, BOMs, inventory, lifecycle management, and replacement sourcing.
