About this product
The Dell 04FHR4 3.5" Hard Drive Backplane is an expansion deck designed for PowerEdge R730XD servers. This genuine Dell branded component allows for additional hard drive connectivity within the server architecture. It is sold as a single unit, but notably, it does not include any drive caddies, which would need to be acquired separately for drive installation.
Our take
For those managing Dell PowerEdge R730XD servers, this genuine Dell 3.5" Hard Drive Backplane (MPN 04FHR4) is an essential component for expanding storage. It's a branded Dell part, which inspires confidence in compatibility and quality. Keep in mind this is just the backplane expansion deck, meaning you'll need to source your 3.5" hard drive caddies separately. The price point reflects it being a server-grade, branded component. Ensure your R730XD server is compatible with this specific backplane before purchasing.
