Supermicro MCP-220-83601-0B — FDD Dummy Tray with 2.5″ Drive Rails
Fills the FDD front bayCarries one 9.5 mm 2.5″ driveRails suppliedGenuine Supermicro part
The Supermicro MCP-220-83601-0B is the black dummy tray for the floppy-size front bay of Supermicro chassis, and it does two jobs at once. It closes off the empty FDD opening so the chassis front is finished and the airflow path is not short-circuited, and it carries rails that let a single slim 2.5-inch hard disk live inside it. That is a useful place for a boot drive or a small utility disk in a chassis whose hot-swap bays are all committed to the array. Supermicro’s own support documentation is explicit about the limit: the supplied rails fit one 9.5 mm slim 2.5-inch hard drive and nothing thicker.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Two cautions before ordering. First, the part number: MCP-220-83601-0B is this dummy tray, while MCP-210-83601-0B is the black front bezel assembly for SC836 and SC837 chassis — one digit apart, completely different parts, and the bezel is the one that appears on current chassis pages. Second, drive height: Supermicro states the rails take a 9.5 mm slim 2.5-inch drive; a 12.5 mm or 15 mm drive will not fit. Supermicro publishes no complete chassis compatibility list for this tray, and it is a legacy part that current SC836 chassis pages no longer carry in their optional-parts tables — the 836 in the part number and Supermicro’s own support FAQ place it with the 3U SC836 family. This position is not hot-swap: the FDD bay is a fixed mount with no backplane, so the drive is cabled directly and the server must be powered down to change it. No drive and no data or power cable are supplied. Send us your chassis model and we will confirm the part before you order.
Best For
✓ Adding a boot or utility disk without giving up a hot-swap bay
✓ Closing an unused FDD opening in the chassis front
✓ Legacy 3U Supermicro builds that still have the floppy bay
✓ Rebuilds where the original dummy tray went missing
✓ Systems that keep a small maintenance drive out of the array
✓ Tidying the front panel of a rack-mounted server
Key Features
A bay you were not using, put to work
Almost no modern server needs a floppy bay, and in most chassis the opening simply sits empty. This tray fills it and adds mounting rails for one slim 2.5-inch hard disk, so a boot drive or a utility disk can live there while every hot-swap bay stays available for the storage array.
The height limit is published and firm
Supermicro’s support documentation states that the included rails fit one 9.5 mm slim 2.5-inch drive. That is the specification to plan around — the common 7 mm SSDs and 9.5 mm laptop disks are fine, and anything thicker is not. Check the drive height before ordering rather than after.
Genuine part, correct front face
A blanked bay in a rack chassis is not only cosmetic: an open hole disturbs the intended front-to-back airflow. Using the Supermicro tray rather than a piece of tape keeps the front panel finished and the air path as designed, and the black finish matches the chassis it was made for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
This is a genuinely useful part in an old-fashioned way: it turns a dead opening in the chassis front into a home for the one drive you do not want inside the array. In a storage server that is often the boot disk, kept separate so that rebuilding the array never touches the operating system. The two things that go wrong with it are both avoidable — ordering the bezel instead of the tray because of one digit, and buying a 12.5 mm drive for a 9.5 mm rail. Confirm the chassis and the drive height and it is a straightforward part. For the drive itself, our enterprise SSDs range covers the 2.5-inch models suited to a boot position, and storage accessories holds the trays and brackets for the rest of the chassis.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You have a Supermicro chassis with an unused floppy-size front bay, you want it blanked properly, and you want to mount one 9.5 mm 2.5-inch drive there without using a hot-swap bay.
Skip it if
You need the chassis front bezel — that is MCP-210-83601-0B. Your drive is thicker than 9.5 mm. Or you need the drive to be hot-swappable, which this position cannot do.
Also consider
Supermicro MCP-220-00118-0B if what you want is a 2.5-inch drive in a 3.5-inch hot-swap bay, or the MCP-210-83601-0B front bezel if the front cover is what is missing.
