can you give me the P/N of Backplane NMVE 8x2.5'?

Hi @DELL-Joey C 

I looked at YD2C2 and the information I got was from Dell R750. Do you have the correct information for the 8x2.5' NVME backplane for the Dell T550?

Hi @JustMe - MCV,

That should be YD2C2

Hi @JustMe - MCV,

From the DPN# search view in our database, T550 is listed too. I do understand google only return search for R750. I probably would suggest being on the safe side, do contact the sales representatives to confirm it can be used in your server's configurations.
