Dell E Dell 3.5 inch Hot plug Hard Drive Tray
This is a Dell 3.5-inch hot-plug hard drive tray (caddy) -- the carrier sled that a bare 3.5-inch hard drive or SSD clips into before being inserted into a PowerEdge server's front-accessible hot-swap drive bay. The tray provides the drive with a rigid mounting frame, a release latch/handle for tool-less insertion and removal, and the connector alignment needed to correctly mate with the server's backplane so the drive can be hot-swapped (added or removed while the server keeps running) without needing to power down or open the chassis. These trays are specific to Dell's PowerEdge drive bay design and generation, so a genuine Dell tray is needed to guarantee correct fit and reliable backplane connection rather than reusing a generic or third-party caddy.
