how to install HPE ProLiant DL20 Gen10 Plus 2SFF HDD Enablement Kit

Follow these general steps to add the 2SFF HDD Enablement Kit to your HPE DL20 Gen10 Plus. Always refer to your server’s maintenance and safety documentation before beginning any hardware upgrade.

  • Power down the server, unplug all power sources, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge before touching internal components.
  • Open the server chassis and locate the drive bays area to determine the best placement for the new SFF drives in accordance with the chassis guidelines.
  • Prepare the two SFF drive carriers by ensuring they are clean and free of debris, then secure the drives into the provided carriers if you are adding new drives; if mounting empty carriers, align them with the chassis mounting points.
  • Install the drive carriers into the available 2.5-inch bays in the DL20 Gen10 Plus chassis, ensuring a firm connection to the backplane and proper seating of any required latches or screws.
  • Connect the data and power cables from the server’s storage controller to the new drive backplane connectors, making sure all connections are fully seated.
  • Route and secure cable management to avoid interference with fans, racks, or other components, then reassemble the chassis and replace the side panel.
  • Power on the server and enter the BIOS or the RAID/storage controller utility to verify that the new drives are recognized. Configure RAID, pass-through, or other storage policies as required for your workload.
  • Bootstrap into the operating system, install any needed storage drivers, and perform a quick health check to ensure the new drives are operating correctly and visible to your applications.

Great earring tree!I
Color: Silver, Color: Silver
I like this earring tree more than I’d expected to! It holds a lot of earrings, is very sturdy and stable, and cute. It also has a little nest basket where you can put items like bracelets and rings. I love that I can see my earring options, and find the ones that best go with my outfit when getting ready for work in the morning. I’m glad it’s metal, almost a work of art, vs cheap plastic. It’s a pleasure to look at, not just functionally useful.

Exactly what I wanted!
It is really exactly what I was looking for. I've been living with my jewelry in ziplock bags since we moved over here and everything fits perfect. I saw some reviews that claimed it was unstable but I tested it and it seems sturdy though I'm not hanging heavy pieces. It is a nice size and I love the little ring basket. It also feels pretty decent quality too. Glad I got the black one as I'm not sure where I have it that the copper/bronze would look right. I think it is elegant, practical and I wish I could post a photo with my pieces on it to show that it really holds things beautifully.

Looks great by my bed!
Even my boyfriend keeps commenting how much he likes it. It's a usable piece of art! I will comment that the earring holes can be a little tricky since the leaves are turned all different ways. You have to be strategic with how you line up your long/dangle-y earrings with your studs so everybody fits and can be seen. A little tricky. But not a deal breaker - especially when it's so easy on the eye. The other slight negative is that this really isn't the best necklace holder. I would have thought, "No problem!" But it's a bit awkward. Especially if you actually intend to see all your earrings. You'll end up hanging most of your necklaces from the top most branch - but they slide down into the crevice to stay. Then you've got a lot of overlapping. And trickiness to retrieve the exact necklace you want with ease. However, this is still a fabulous earring tree. I can't say enough good things about it. Love the little basket for miscellaneous. Hair bands, lip gloss, etc.

Beautiful jewelry display
Color: Bronze-Tone
A few rough edges, but all in all well made and attractive. Holds lots of earrings and I can drape my necklaces on the tree. There's a nice bowl for bracelets and a nice tray that forms the base.

Gorgeous
Color: Bronze-Tone
It really is pretty to look at. To be honest arranging the earring on the tree is a bit of a pain, because the leaves tilt in different directions, and you have to play with it a bit to get the earrings to hang the way you would like them, but once you figure it out, they look very nice. I just adore it because it looks so pretty. I use the basket on the side for rings and watches, and the little plate in the base for a few miscellaneous pieces like necklaces or bracelets for balance and because they look nice. You'll love it.
