3.5-inch LFF SAS/SATA Server Caddy

The Dell Y796F is a 3.5 inch LFF hard drive caddy built for 14th generation PowerEdge servers. It accepts both SAS and SATA drives in a single tray. The V2 design matches the current chassis specification. This accessory secures large-form-factor storage inside compatible Dell racks.

Suits 14th Gen PowerEdge bays.

Administrators upgrading or expanding 14th generation PowerEdge V2 systems use this caddy to add 3.5 inch SAS or SATA drives. It will not fit 2.5 inch drive bays or servers from other generations. Buyers needing SFF density or a different generation chassis must select another part.

SAS and SATA interface support

The tray carries both SAS and SATA connectors so either drive type installs without an adapter. This dual-protocol support is the specification that determines whether the caddy matches your drive inventory. Verify that your drives use SAS or SATA before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the Y796F caddy itself need any periodic maintenance or replacement parts?

The caddy is a passive metal tray with no moving parts or electronics, so it does not require scheduled maintenance or replacement components.

What is the first limitation you hit when drives in the Y796F run continuously in a 14th Gen PowerEdge?

The tray only provides mechanical mounting and signal pass-through; sustained throughput and thermal limits are set by the drive and the server backplane, not by the caddy.

Does the Y796F add any audible noise, extra heat or power draw when the server runs all day?

The caddy has no fans, chips or active circuitry, so it contributes zero noise, no additional heat and draws no power of its own.
