The HPE 826688-B21 is an option part number for a Riser Kit designed for HPE ProLiant DL38X Gen10 servers. It is described as a DL38X Gen10 2SFF HDD SAS/SATA Riser Kit, or sometimes as an NVMe 8 Solid State Drive Express Bay Enablement Kit in some contexts, though the primary specification points to SAS/SATA support for 2 SFF drives. It installs in place of the primary or secondary riser and contains two 2.5-inch SFF HDD/SSD slots with support for SATA 6Gb/s and SAS 12Gb/s interfaces. It is compatible with HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 and DL385 Gen10 servers. Some sources indicate it may also leave one x16 PCI-e 3.0 connector available in the bottom slot and that rear drives require the addition of the High Performance Fan kit (867810-B21) on DL380 Gen10 models. It also supports uFF drives.
