Harde-schijf-inbouwframe Lenovo 44T2216 voor 2,5-inch SATA/SAS-SFF-stations

Drive tray Lenovo 44T2216 is a 2.5" SFF mounting bracket compatible with SATA and SAS hard drives and SSDs. Designed for Lenovo and IBM server and storage chassis, it secures a 2.5" drive in a hot-swap bay, ensures proper alignment with the backplane connector, and facilitates quick drive replacement and maintenance without tool-heavy procedures.

Advantages

The tray offers a standard 2.5" form factor that supports both SATA and SAS interfaces, enabling use with spinning hard drives and solid-state drives. Its metal and plastic construction provides stable mounting and protection for the drive while maintaining correct airflow in server racks. The front latch and guide rails enable tool-less insertion and removal in compatible hot-swap bays, reducing downtime during service operations.

Suitable for

• Installing or replacing 2.5" SATA or SAS HDDs and SSDs in Lenovo/IBM server and storage enclosures
• Maintaining hot-swap drive bays in data center racks
• Upgrading storage in blade servers, rack servers, and storage appliances that accept 2.5" SFF trays
• Temporary drive testing or cloning where frequent drive swapping is required

Key specifications

• Form factor: 2.5" SFF drive tray for hot-swap bays
• Compatible drive types: 2.5" SATA and SAS HDDs and SSDs
• Material: mixed metal and reinforced plastic components for structural support
• Front interface: tool-less latch mechanism and guide rails for bay insertion/removal
• Cooling consideration: openings and profile designed to maintain airflow in rack enclosures
• Mounting: screw or snap-mount points matching standard 2.5" drive holes and bay connectors

How to use

Align the 2.5" drive's mounting holes with the tray's screw locations and secure the drive using the supplied screws or the tray's snap-fit points. Slide the assembled tray into a compatible hot-swap bay until the latch engages and the drive mates with the backplane connector. To remove the drive, release the front latch and pull the tray straight out. Follow server or storage enclosure procedures for drive handling, including powering down if required by your system before replacing non–hot-pluggable drives.

Recommendations

Handle the drive and tray in an electrostatic-safe environment and use the correct screws to avoid damaging the drive housing. Verify compatibility with your specific Lenovo or IBM chassis model and ensure the bay supports the drive interface (SATA or SAS) before installation.
