HP Elite Mini 800 G9 Desktop NO hard drive cage

[chris12839]

Hello everyone i just received my  Elite MIni 800 G9, I found it does not come with hard drive cage like G4 or G5. Is it true that G9 only can use 2 NVME ssd but no 2.5 or 3.5 hard drive?  Is there a way that i can order 2.5 sata drive cage to upgrade myself?

Maintenance and Service Guide

Hard drive and drive cage
NOTE: Drive cage is not available as a spare part

I therefore do not know here, if this means that if purchased without a secondary hdd, it will be possible to add one if not equipped with the cage, not to mention the connectors

but read the whole document carefully, and check directly inside

my HP elite Mini 800 G9 has no drive cage nor connector. It is empty in the drive area. What should i do? return the product? should it come with drive cage or no?

hi

Up to you
as I said, the doc here is not very clear, it says NOTE: Drive cage is not available as a spare part
So it is likely that cannot be found..
so yes, if it is impossible, then you can see, to exchange models, I think
