Help finding Dell Flexbay
I picked up a Precision 3660 over the holidays. While outfitting it I came across the hot swap bays Dell makes. I was able to easily locate a drive caddy for 3.5in. But I am having a heck of a time finding the actual flexbay to mount to the chassis.
the image is from the 5860 build page.
from the build sheet;
Upper Flexbay |
No Hard Drive | [400-AKZR]/GMKBO5E |
|---|
But I have thus far not been able to locate this item either by Flexbay or any combo of the part numbers above. Anyone have any ideas?

Dell sales chat: We do have the 4RXGJ part in stock
The price is around $14.99
4RXGJ is the bracket
P55XY is the caddy
pic shows there is a 2.5” optional adapter built in the caddy.

4RXGJ (or P55XY) is the external enclosure you are looking for, as it says LCK-CVR which may mean lock-cover
this is very expensive on eBay now. P55XY 4RXGJ

Here are two Picturtes that might help with installing the Front Hard Drive Bay.

Thanks to the folks who have chimed in. While pictures and part numbers have come up through here and my searching, I have yet to find a site I can buy the chassis components to use the flex bay. Honestly, I just gave up and installed a 5tb in the case and use a 5tb usbC to back that up. After going through Dell support chat and phone without resolution it just seemed I was chasing a unicorn. While I would like to complete this at some point, it just never was a priority.
