2.5" SAS/SATA Server Drive Caddy 2-Pack

This two-pack of metal drive caddies is a direct OEM-equivalent replacement for Lenovo part number SM17A06246. It fits ThinkSystem ST550, SR550, SR590, SR630, SR650 and SR850 servers. The sturdy metal frame securely mounts 2.5-inch SAS and SATA SSDs or HDDs for reliable datacentre operation.

Suited for ThinkSystem storage expansion

IT teams expanding storage capacity or configuring RAID arrays in the listed ThinkSystem models will find these brackets a plug-and-play fit. They are not for servers outside the ST550, SR550, SR590, SR630, SR650 and SR850 range, nor for 3.5-inch drive bays or tool-less plastic sleds.

OEM part number SM17A06246 confirms fit

Matching this exact Lenovo part number is the single specification that guarantees mechanical compatibility with the drive bay locking mechanism and connector alignment. Verify the number on your existing caddy or server parts list before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the SM17A06246 caddy use the standard 2.5-inch SAS/SATA form factor for Lenovo ThinkSystem bays?

Yes, each bracket matches the 2.5-inch SAS/SATA form factor required by the ThinkSystem ST550, SR550, SR590, SR630, SR650 and SR850 drive bays.

How is the SM17A06246 installed, and what step is often missed?

Slide the 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drive into the metal frame, secure it with the included screws, then insert the assembly into the server bay until the latch clicks — the click confirms the drive is fully seated.

What part of the SM17A06246 may need replacement after years of drive swaps?

The latch spring and screw threads on the metal frame can wear after repeated insertions; keeping a spare 2-pack on hand avoids downtime during future maintenance.
