I would like to add the 4x 2.5” hard drive conversion in the 5.25” bay for the T7610.

While I have reviewed the below link, I do have a few questions.

Also, it does look like some of the part numbers for the T7600/T7610 SKU are actually under the T7910.

None the less, I have called Dell & they state that SKU 331-9320 for the T7600/T7610 is not available.

The T7910 SKU is 470-ABHF & is currently available for $199.99 & contains:

(Assembly, Bracket, Hard drive, 2.5, T7910)

Precision T7910 HDD caddy including 4x 2.5” hot swap plastic caddies. Includes 2x HDD Fans (NPHFY) also 1x Cable/Bracket Assembly (PWRC1) with connections for 4x hot swap HDDs.

On an off note, supposedly W80XH is the refurb of 470-ABHF & is only $164.99.

 

Question 1:

The case for the T7600/T7610 look to be the exact same as the T7910. I don’t see an issue with the 5.25 bay converter from the T7910 fitting into the T7610, does anyone else?

 

Question 2:

The T7910 fans look to be part number NPHFY ASSY,FAN,60X25,12V,PWS,AVALON

Where as the T7610 fans look to be part number 31P1V ASSY,FAN,HDD,12V,60X25,PTL,BS

Does anyone know what the PWS,AVALON means compared to PTL,BS?

I just want to make sure as 31P1V is not available & I’d have to try & source those elsewhere.

 

Question 3:

https://www.dell.com/community/Desktops-General/List-of-Simple-and-Yes-or-No-questions-about-the-Precision-T7910/td-p/4508318

From my the above link I would have to replace part number PWRC1 ASSY,CBL,PWR, SAS HD, T7910

With part number T5C70 ASSY,CBL,PWR/SAS,HDD,2.5,T7600 as this is the SAS 6 gbit cable & the above is a SAS 12 gbit cable.

T5C70 is currently in stock & is $15.99.

 

Does anyone have any other suggestions or notice something that I’m missing?

Thank you
