Product Description
Company Owner
Our small business has its own servers. When expanding disk space for us, it is important that the product comes with a clear installation manual. Ease of installation is also important, and everything must be thought out as a whole. These very well-produced mounting screws fit very well, and there are even extras. We can also conveniently label RAID disks with the included tray caddy labels.
Corporate Purchaser
When we receive a purchase request from the IT department the homogeneity of the products is important for me as a buyer. Many times the products look the same externally but they are manufactured at different levels in the factories. This means that the quality can be mediocre. But WORKDONE uses uniform, excellent quality products in terms of material and functionality. In addition, we get a broad support and the best in-depth expertise we can full trust!
Data Center IT Professional
We are responsible for the cloud services of several companies, and we have many machine rooms. It is important for us to quickly align the damaged HDD's and for the technician to get the information through management as well as to target the damaged HDD's through very clear LED lights. It is also really convenient that we can get multipack products and everything is packed very well and the product boxes even open from the top by hand. Everything saves space - a carefully thought-out whole.
Top Opening Strong Packing
Easy to Access – Keep your frames in order. This compact pack is easy to take with you to the installation site.
Bright LED
This innovation makes hard drive indicator lights brighter. The server backplane has activity LED, and LED signal lights are transferred to a special plastic rail to the front of drive caddy. Indicator lights show important statuses from the hard drive. The hard drive's green activity indicator and the green and amber status indicator are now cleaner and brighter.
Practical Front Labels
Mark and clue sticker label to dedicated place on the front of drive caddy. Two different Sticker Label surface types included. Use Permanent Marker or Ballpoint Pen to mark your empty Sticker Labels. Make it more visual - mark and see your RAID Volume or individual disks - without removing Hard Drives. Shorten your inventory time.
Heavy Duty Screws
It might sound ridiculous, but one of the most common problems we see is missing mounting screws or screws that are simply the wrong size. And, obviously, without the proper screws, you can’t install your hard drive. We also add some extra screws in case the small screws disappear.
What’s the purpose of a hard drive carrier?
Hard drive carriers are multipurpose. The hard drive carrier/frame/removable hard drive enclosure is just a modified drive bay that allows a standard hard drive in a carrier assembly to be removed and inserted with little effort. The carriers have a release handle that can be used to push the drive out of the server.
What’s the server backplane?
Hard drive connectors have to hit backplane connectors precisely, or the entire installation won’t work. That’s another function of the hard drive carrier – it physically holds the hard drive in the correct position so the connectors meet.
How to check server drive bay size?
You can’t choose the correct hard drive or the correct drive carrier until you actually know what size drive bay your server has. You should know that before you start ordering hard drives. How can you check this? Simple: press the release button, open the release handle, and slide the hard drive with its drive carrier out of the server. Just measure it. Do you have 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch drives?

These are hands down the best aftermarket drive trays ! I bought a set of 4 on ebay from a diffrent seller and they arrived today along with these. The ones from e bay are trash! All plastic very flimsy while these are solid metal rails and aluminum flip down door. I would 100% recommend these to anyone that has a poweredge that needs new or just adding new hard-drives. I'd be willing to say these are made better than the originals from dell.

WORKDONE caddies are high quality and include all the necessary components for installation (screws, screwdriver, and manual). The screws could be a better. The measure roughly 1/8th inch and a hair in length, with the threaded portion being 1/16. I've received other caddies with screws measuring 3/16 in total length and they've felt much more snug than the WORKDONE screws.The kit comes in a box. Each caddy is packaged with its own screw baggie and stickers.I would buy it again.

Ordered these 2.5" drives for Dell R620 and R30 and they fit snug. The quality is fantastic. These are made of metal and not plastic, so quite sturdy. Each tray is individually packaged with screws and labels. A small Phillips was included to attach drives.

This is a good quality replacement for the original Dell caddies. Perfect fit and no sharp edges. Feel better than the originals.

I purchased a refurbished Dell R630 Server, but it came with mostly drive plugs/covers. I bought a 4-pack of these and they worked perfectly. I ended up buying another 4-pack. Very happy, nice product.

The screws included are way too small for my SSDs. And you can't use normal computer screws as a work around unless you grind the head to a smaller size. I had to order a seperate pack of m3 screws to be able to use it.

These are sturdier than my OEM caddies and they work perfectly, I'd recommend them to anyone who needs a Dell PowerEdge 2.5" caddy!

It's pretty straight forward to verify if it's working or not. I only needed a caddy to simply hold the drive in place, as it's located in the rear of the system and didn't come with their own caddies. It works as needed. Low cost. Free shipping. Thank you.

Wow. I never would write a review for HD caddies but here I am. Everything was outstanding. - The packaging - The fit and finish of the caddies, - Including extra a extra screw - Two different types of labels (silver and white) with two labels each and notched that fit precisely. - The instructions. Not that I needed them but someone spent some time making them look niceThe onlyyyyyyy minor complaint is the screw driver doesn't have enough grip to remove OEM screws but I still have my RadioShack drivers from 1986.Oh and they are as good or better than the OEM DELL ones. I put these in a PowerEdge R630
