Product overview
2078-24E is an IBM storwize V5000 SFF expansion Enclosure. Drives, carriers and the enclosure are separate line items, and a shelf that arrives without carriers cannot be populated. Tell us the drive count and we will quote the whole shelf.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against 2078-24E specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
No substitutions without asking
If we cannot supply the exact code we tell you what we can supply and why, rather than shipping an equivalent and letting you find out.
Carriers counted with the drives
Enclosure, carriers and disks are quoted as one line so the shelf can actually be populated on arrival.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is 2078-24E genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes — new and sealed, with the IBM warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
- Will 2078-24E work in my server?
- Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it — firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes — POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
