Product overview
IBM lists 2078-24G as a FlashSystem 5000 SFF expansion Enclosure. An expansion shelf has to be supported by the head unit's firmware, not merely cabled to it. Tell us the controller and we will confirm the shelf is on its supported list.
Quotes are itemised down to the accessories, so nothing that is needed to make the part work is left off and discovered later.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against 2078-24G, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Carriers counted with the drives
Enclosure, carriers and disks are quoted as one line so the shelf can actually be populated on arrival.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 2078-24G genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in IBM packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will 2078-24G 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. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.
