They won't have them online. But I've got the invoice to forward over if they give you a hard time. You'll have to call Dell's accessory people. They won't have them online.

I got the drive trays from the parts sales division. You'll definitely have to call up after you place the order online. Best bet would be to place the order online. Call up immediately after you get the order number and request to modify the order adding the drive trays.

Did you use them? Also, where do you get your CC852 drive trays. I've looked everywhere, as I'm doing the same things as you, trying to put together a cheap system, but can't find them at a reasonable price. Are the PN939 Interposer cards benificial in any way?
