2nd SFF cage in LFF ML350 G6

[Andrzej Olszewski]

Hi

I'm using a HP ML350 GS server (P/N 487932-421) with LFF hard drives. Because I have some spare SFF drives I wonder if I could install in this server's media bay a 2nd SFF drive cage, for example P/N 507803-B21. It's compatibility sheet says nothing about particular models of servers - just ML350 and ML370.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for answers.

I was misled by... HP callcenter technician who was claiming that LFF servers can be extended by LFF drive cages only :/
