Product overview
Part number ME4024 identifies this Dell PowerVault 24-Bay 2.5in SAS storage array. Daisy-chain limits and cable type decide how many shelves a controller can carry and in what order they are cabled. This unit is SAS. Send the current layout and we will map the cabling with the quote.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
ME4024 is what is quoted and ME4024 is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Supported by the head unit
We confirm the shelf is on the controller’s supported list, not merely that the cable fits.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is ME4024 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
Will ME4024 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.
