Will the M830 12-1.8 backplane work in M820?

Being that finding a used PowerEdge M830 is difficult (And likely not cheep!) and I need a blade for my VRTX  (Personal LAB) that can have more than 4 local drives. I was curious if the THH7P PowerEdge M830 12x1.8 Backplane will work in a M820. I understand that the front bezel for the blade also would need to be swapped, but first want to know if they are compatible.

    Hello

    The two servers use different backplanes, it is unlikely you could move backplanes between the two.

    Thanks
