Looking for hotswap front plate/empty tray for R240

Question

Hi, I'd like to replace a hotswap tray in one of our PowerEdge R240's. It currently contains an SSD, but I'd like to reconfigure the server to only have one SSD (it was delivered with two). The side of the tray say 'DP/N Y796F'. On the bottom side of the plate it says 'P/N VMDCF'. Both are engraved into the metal. There's also a sticker that shows 'DP/N 01Y05J'. Can anyone guide me on which part number to order to get the empty version of this tray? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

The part number I provided and the SKU refer to the same item. You can view it at the link below. You may notice that the part number shown in this listing is C6J0M. You can safely ignore that. That number simply refers to the actual part number I provided with a product sheet. You may also notice that the compatible systems only shows the NX440. You may safely ignore that, as well. I am looking at the chart right now confirming this part as compatible.

Hello,   The part number for the blank insert should be F3F7V, I've included an image of the part it refers to for confirmation.

Hi @Dell-DylanJ thanks for looking into this for me! Sorry for my late reply, the notification email was stuck in my spam filter. In the meantime, I'd checked with Dell Support, and they've indicated that the SKU is 400-BBSG. Can you tell me if your P/N, F3F7V, is another name for the same item? Your photo does look remarkably similar.

Hi @DiegoLopez Thanks for helping out, but just to be clear, '400-BBSG' is not the same string value as the Dell Part Number that @Dell-DylanJ provided, which was 'F3F7V'. But perhaps what you are saying is that any given part has _both_ a SKU and a Dell Part Number (which was already my assumption, to be honest), and that the two values I've mentioned above do indeed refer to the same item? Just want to make sure I'm understanding you correctly, as your phrasing could read as if you mean to say that SKU and Dell Part Number is one and the same (which is not the case here).

Hello @Cardgage,   Yes, it is the same. A SKU is a more commercial name and the Dell Part Number is a little bit more technical. It's the same thing.   Regards.
