Netserver LC2000 Backplane replacement/upgrade

[Gerald Henthorn]

This Netserver comes with a backplane hotswap configuration for 6 1" hotswap harddrives and I would like to reconfigure it to accept 4 1.6" hotswap hard drives. Does a backplane replacement part for this server exist??? Would a part from the LC3000 work??? HP has discontinued tech support for this model and I am having trouble finding any information.

1.6" hotswaps? They have not made full hieght drives in a long time, nor are there any hot swap trays that support them except the old HP trays like the ones for the LC3.
To answer your question, no, the backplane is unique to the unit and mechanical physicals, though you may be able to cut a paste different one in there if need be.
