The Intel AUP8X25S3DPDK is an eight bay hot swap drive kit that lets you add or replace 2.5 inch SAS drives in an Intel P4000 server chassis without shutting the system down. By combining a dual port SAS backplane with tool free drive carriers, it helps administrators expand storage quickly while keeping applications available.
The dual port design gives every installed drive two independent data paths. This arrangement improves redundancy because the server can maintain a connection to the drive even if one path fails. For environments that rely on continuous uptime, such as virtualization hosts, database clusters, or private cloud nodes, the additional fault tolerance can make a noticeable difference.
Each of the eight carriers secures a drive without screws, so swaps take only a few moments. That speed is useful during scheduled maintenance, but it is even more valuable when a drive shows early signs of failure and needs to be replaced immediately. The carriers slide smoothly into the backplane and lock into place, creating a reliable connection with minimal fuss.
The kit arrives with everything required for installation, including I2C cables for monitoring, a power adapter that feeds the backplane directly, and an EMI cover that shields the bay from electromagnetic interference. These pieces work together to keep signal quality high and help the chassis cooling system maintain steady airflow.
Whether you are adding additional capacity for growing user data, preparing a cache tier for faster read and write performance, or replacing an older bay that no longer meets your needs, this kit offers a straightforward path to a more flexible storage layout.
