Product overview
HPE lists QR491A as a M6720 24-Bays 3.5-inch SAS Drive 4U storage Enclosure. Drives, carriers and the enclosure are separate line items, and a shelf that arrives without carriers cannot be populated. This is a 4U enclosure. Tell us the drive count and we will quote the whole shelf.
The listed price is per unit and current; tell us the quantity and we will confirm what it holds at before you raise the order.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against QR491A, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is QR491A genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in HPE 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 QR491A 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.
