Hi Redxps630,you are right, the OEM product code of the part corresponding to the pure 3.5" caddy is probably IB5IR9N00-600; as you specified, Dell might have another one corresponding.In any case, the plastic caddy model actually looks the same as what is shown in the service manual of my new PC (PC OptiPlex 7090 Tower CTO). So the piece it would seem to be the same. Reguarding the metal cage showed on E-bay (second link that you sent me), it would seem slightly different from that showed in the service manual of the PC even if, at the moment, I cannot be so sure. I’ll see what to do.For your information, I’ve dealt with Dell's Italian Sales Office as I live in Italy (near Milan). Hi Paventhan,OK for clarification; yes, the community cannot know the Dell spare parts available for specific countries (I'm writing from Italy). Anyway you have given me some useful suggestions.For completeness of information, through the Italian sales office of Dell, I ordered at the beginning of October both a bracket for a 3.5" hard disk (which as we know turned out to be incompatible) and a bracket for a 2.5" hard disk. The latter is correct, it's the same as shown in the PC service manual. Thanks to all for the advice.Now I'll see how to get around.Best regardsMassimiliano
Hi to all,I’d ask a question in order to know (I really hope that someone can give me an answer) the product code related to the blue plastic bracket suitable for fixing a 3.5" internal hard disk on a new computer OptiPlex 7090 Tower CTO that I purchased on July 27, 2021. This is because I’d like to add a classic 3.5” hard drive for the data (the PC is equipped with a M.2 512GB PCIe NVMe Class 40 Solid State Drive). Through the Dell telephone support, I already purchased a 3.5" hard disk bracket at the beginning of October but once I received the package, I found that this bracket is different from the one shown in my PC service manual. From the conversations I have had with the Dell support, it would seem that it isn’t so easy for them to identify the exact 3.5” HDD bracket model for my PC (OptiPlex 7090 Tower CTO). The bracket that was sent to me has product code 5M0XF; through a post in the Dell Community (of another user), I saw that it’s a 3.5" hard drive bracket for an Optiplex XE3 SFF PC and therefore for another model of computer.Up to date, I didn't opened the case of the computer for a visual check as I'd consider this operation useless. I really hope someone can provide me with the right product code (to be able to provide directly to Dell support, that I need).Below, respectively, the bracket I need for the computer I purchased and the bracket I received. Thanks to anyone can provide me with useful information.Best regardsMassimiliano Image 1: the bracket that I need (from the OptiPlex 7090 Tower Service Manual) [IMAGE] Image 2: the bracket that I received (from my photo) [IMAGE]
