HPE ProLiant DL365 Gen10 Plus 2SFF U.3 Backplane Kit

The HPE P38581-B21 is a backplane kit created for the ProLiant DL365 Gen10 Plus server. By installing it, administrators gain two bays that accept Small Form Factor drives with a U.3 connection, giving the system room for growth and the throughput required for demanding workloads.

Because the kit follows HPE engineering standards, it lines up with existing mounting points and internal cabling, making installation straightforward. The chassis-friendly design measures 20.65 cm by 27.94 cm by 10.16 cm and weighs only 0.45 kg, so a single technician can complete the upgrade without disrupting other hardware.

This storage expansion is a practical choice for data centers that run virtualization clusters, database servers, or analytics applications where fast local storage shortens response times. It also suits remote or branch offices that need more capacity but have limited rack space, allowing them to keep critical data on site instead of depending solely on external arrays.

Whether you are refreshing an existing DL365 Gen10 Plus deployment or planning a new build, the P38581-B21 provides a direct path to higher capacity and performance while preserving the compact footprint that makes the system popular in dense environments.
