HPE DL38X Gen10 x8/x8/x8 1-port 2 NVMe SlimSAS Riser

The HPE 867806-B21 is a riser kit built for ProLiant DL38X Gen10 servers, giving your system three PCIe x8 slots and a SlimSAS port that accepts up to two NVMe drives. By adding this kit, you open the door to faster storage options or additional accelerator cards without sacrificing space inside the chassis.

This kit is a practical upgrade for administrators who run data-intensive workloads such as database hosting, high-performance computing, or virtualized environments that need quick access to large datasets. With room for extra NVMe drives, you can shorten latency, boost throughput, and keep critical applications responsive, whether you manage a fast-growing small business or a busy enterprise lab.

Installation is straightforward. The riser slides into the designated bay on a ProLiant DL380 or DL385 Gen10 system, and all required documentation arrives in the box. Once seated, the kit instantly provides the extra lanes you need to scale storage, networking, or GPU resources as your workload evolves.

Because the architecture matches the DL38X Gen10 design, the riser maintains proper airflow and power allocation while occupying minimal space. That balance lets you extend server capabilities today and keep expansion options open for tomorrow.
