| Components | Specification |
| Machine types | 7X18 – 1 year warranty 7X19 – 3 year warranty |
| Form factor | 2U rack. |
| Processor | Up to four second-generation Intel Xeon Processor Scalable Family of processors, either Gold or Platinum level processors (formerly codename “Cascade Lake”). Supports processors up to 28 cores, core speeds up to 3.8 GHz, and TDP ratings up to 205W. Two processor sockets on the system board and two processors on the Processor and Memory Expansion Tray (standard on most models). Two Intel Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) links at 10.4 GT/s each. Four processors are connected in a ring topology. |
| Chipset | Intel C624 “Lewisburg” chipset |
| Memory | Up to 48 DIMM slots (12 DIMMs per processor). Each processor has 6 memory channels, with 2 DIMMs per channel. Lenovo TruDDR4 RDIMMs, LRDIMMs and 3DS RDIMMs are supported. There are 24 DIMM sockets on the system board, and an additional 24 DIMM sockets on the processor and memory expansion tray (standard on most models).
DIMM slots are shared between standard system memory and persistent memory. DIMMs are available in three speeds: 2666 MHz, 2933 MHz and Performance+ 2933 MHz. Performance+ DIMMs support 2993 MHz with two DIMMs installed per channel (2DPC), whereas 2933 MHz DIMMs support 2933 MHz with only 1 DIMM per channel (1DPC). |
| Persistent memory | Supports up to 24 Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory modules (DCPMMs) installed in the DIMM slots. Persistent memory is installed in combination with system memory DIMMs. |
| Memory maximums |
Note: Support of more than 1TB per processor (more than 4TB for a 4-processor system) requires M-suffix or L-suffix processors with 2TB or 4.5TB memory support respectively. These calculations include any Persistent Memory installed. See the Processor options section for information. |
| Memory protection | ECC, SDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs), ADDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs), memory mirroring, and memory sparing. |
| Disk drive bays | Up to 16 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS/SATA bays. |
| Maximum internal storage |
|
| Storage controller |
|
| Optical drive bays | No internal optical drive. |
| Tape drive bays | No internal backup drive. |
| Network interfaces | Integrated 10Gb Ethernet controller, based on the Intel Ethernet Connection X722. The server supports 1 of 6 available Phy adapters, providing either 2- or 4-port Gigabit Ethernet, 2- or 4-port 10 GbE with SFP+ connections or 2- or 4-port 10 GbE with RJ45 connections. One port can optionally be shared with the XClarity Controller (XCC) management processor for Wake-on-LAN and NC-SI support. |
| PCI Expansion slots | Up to 9 PCIe slots plus a slot reserved for a LOM Ethernet adapter, plus a slot for the M.2 adapter. Six slots plus the LOM slot are on the system board and three (slots 3-5) are through a riser card. Three riser cards are available. All slots are available with two processors.
The slots are as follows:
|
| Ports | Front: Two USB 2.0 ports or one USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 port, model dependent. The first USB 2.0 port can be configured to support local systems management by using the XClarity Administrator mobile app on a mobile device connected via a USB cable. Optional front VGA video port (CTO or field upgrade).
Rear: Two USB 3.0 ports, one VGA video port, one DB-9 serial port, and one RJ-45 XClarity Controller (XCC) systems management port. The serial port can be shared with the XCC for serial redirection functions. Internal: Optional M.2 adapter in dedicated slot supporting one or two M.2 drives (for OS boot support, including hypervisor support). |
| Cooling | Six N+1 redundant hot swap 60 mm fans (all six standard). One fan integrated in each power supply. |
| Power supply | Up to two hot-swap redundant AC power supplies (all 80 PLUS Platinum certification): 750 W, 1100 W and 1600 W AC options, supporting 220 V AC. 750 W and 1100 W options also support 110V input supply. In China only, all power supply options support 240 V DC. Second power supply requires either Processor and Memory Expansion Tray or a power interposer card. |
| Video | G200 graphics with 16 MB memory with 2D hardware accelerator, integrated into the XClarity Controller. Maximum resolution is 1920×1200 32bpp at 60Hz. |
| Hot-swap parts | Drives, power supplies, and fans. |
| Systems management | XClarity Controller embedded management, XClarity Administrator centralized infrastructure delivery, XClarity Integrator plugins, and XClarity Energy Manager centralized server power management. XClarity Controller Advanced standard with the SR850; XClarity Controller Enterprise optional with software license upgrade. Light path diagnostics for local failure detection and reporting, with optional LCD diagnostics pull-out panel. |
| Security features | Power-on password, administrator’s password, Trusted Platform Module (TPM), supporting TPM 1.2 or TPM 2.0. In China only, optional Trusted Cryptographic Module (TCM). Lockable top cover. Optional lockable front security bezel. |
| Operating systems supported | Microsoft Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, VMware ESXi. See the Operating systems section for specifics. |
| Limited warranty | Three-year or one-year (model dependent) customer-replaceable unit and onsite limited warranty with 9×5 next business day (NBD). |
| Service and support | Optional service upgrades are available through Lenovo Services: 4-hour or 2-hour response time, 6-hour fix time, 1-year or 2-year warranty extension, software support for Lenovo hardware and some third-party applications. |
| Dimensions | Width: 445 mm (17.5 in.), height: 87 mm (3.4 in.), depth: 765 mm (30.1 in.). See Physical and electrical specifications for details. |
| Weight | Minimum configuration: 18 kg (40 lb.), maximum: 27 kg (59.6 lb) |
