Optane 900p Replacement Bracket

Is it possible to purchase replacement half height and full height replacement brackets which are Optane specific? I have an Optane 900p 280GB AIC which I need to purchase replacement brackets for.

Ideally, I'd prefer the exact Optane bracket, but found that spare standard "LSI-type bracket" won't work as while the spacing between the holes which the screws insert through is the same,

  • the Optane bracket has a completely flat tab with un-threaded holes for the screws
  • and a standard "LSI-type bracket" has a bit of a lip on the threaded-holes which the screws fasten to.
  • that lip and the threads make it incompatible, but again, I'd prefer to find a replacement Optane bracket.

My search for one has proved unsuccessful, so any help offered would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hello svtkobra7,

 

 

Thank you for your interest in the Intel® Optane™ SSD 900P Series.

 

 

I understand that you are interested in purchasing half-height and full-height brackets.

 

 

According to this link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000025739/memory-and-storage/enthusiast-ssds.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000025739/memory-and-storage/enthusiast-ssds.html, the Intel® Optane™ SSD 900P Series (add-in card form factor) comes with a half-height bracket. Could you please further explain why you are interested in purchasing more brackets? Do you have a case of a missing bracket?

 

 

I'll be waiting for your response.

 

 

Regards,

Sure I'm happy to explain.

I actually only need 1 full height bracket (it was missing you are correct) for my current server (4U = Full Height Bracket). But as I bent the current half height bracket (2U), and as brackets are generally inexpensive, I am interested in purchasing that as well.

I look forward to your response and thanks in advance.
