Compatibility & part-number cross-reference

Enter a server or switch model — or an OEM part number — and get the compatible drives, memory, PSUs, RAID/HBA controllers and optics we have in stock, with the exact grade and price. Part numbers also return their OEM cross-reference equivalents and the systems they fit. It's the lookup the incumbents never built — so you can specify a BOM before you issue a PO.

Showing an example lookup. Search a model or OEM part number above to build your own compatible bill of materials — or send us the list and we'll cross-reference it against stock.

Compatibility data is engineer-maintained and mirrors current stock. Confirm firmware/OS and licensing on the RFQ — we verify every line before it ships.

How this works

OEM part-number cross-referencing, explained

Every drive, DIMM, controller and optic in an enterprise system ships under several different part numbers. The tool above collapses them into one answer: what fits, what it's equivalent to, and what's in stock.

A single physical component travels the supply chain under a stack of identifiers. A Seagate ST1200MM0098 1.2TB 10K SAS drive is the same spindle Dell sells as 400-AJPU, HPE ships with a SmartCarrier as 872479-B21, and Lenovo trays as its own ThinkSystem SKU. The raw drive is identical; the carrier, firmware and label change. If you search only the OEM's number, you miss the far cheaper — and functionally identical — cross-referenced part.

The four numbers that matter

  • OEM system part number — the SKU printed on the server maker's carrier or box (e.g. Dell 400-AJPU, HPE P00924-B21). What your asset system records.
  • Component manufacturer number — the drive/DIMM maker's own MPN (Seagate ST1200MM0098, Micron MTA36ASF4G72PZ-2G9). Often 40–70% cheaper for the same silicon.
  • Spare / assembly number — the service-parts SKU an OEM quotes for warranty replacement (e.g. an HPE -091 spare).
  • MSA / standard reference — for optics, the multi-source-agreement type (10GBASE-SR, 40GBASE-SR4) that any compliant transceiver implements, regardless of the coding a switch expects.

Where the compatibility caveats live

Cross-reference is not "any part fits any slot." The engineering rules the tool encodes:

  • Memory is platform-locked. HPE P00924-B21 is Smart Memory for ProLiant Gen10 only — it will not validate in a Dell R740. Speed also negotiates: DDR4-2933 runs at 2933 on 2nd-gen Xeon Scalable and downclocks to 2666 on 1st-gen.
  • Controllers track the server generation. Dell's 0J6WK (PERC H730P) is the 13G (R730-era) Mini Mono card; the 14G R740/R640 use the H740P. Same family, different generation.
  • Drive carriers are proprietary. The spindle is standard 12Gb/s SAS, but Dell, HPE and Lenovo each use a different hot-swap tray — so a bare drive needs the matching caddy.
  • Optics are coded. A 10GBASE-SR optic is MSA-standard optically, but Cisco, Arista and Juniper each expect a vendor code in the EEPROM. Our compatible optics are coded for the target platform — tell us the switch OS on the RFQ.
The short version

Search the number you have. The tool returns the in-stock SKU, its OEM equivalents, and the systems it fits — so you can drop a verified line into a BOM instead of chasing three vendors' part catalogs.
