240 GB 1.8" SATA Enterprise SSD

This Lenovo 00AJ340 is a 240 GB internal solid-state drive built for IBM System x servers. It uses a SATA interface and a 1.8 inch form factor with MLC NAND rated for enterprise workloads. The drive fits the x3650 M4, x3850 X6 and x3950 X6 platforms.

Tool-free bay installation in compatible IBM systems

The drive slides into a 1.8 inch hot-swap bay and locks with the server's native latch mechanism, so no screws or cables are required. Installers must verify the exact server model because the x3650 M4 HD and X6 variants share similar front panels but use different backplane connectors. Mixing drive types in the same array will cause the controller to reject the volume.

Steady write latency under sustained enterprise I/O

MLC media and enterprise firmware keep write latency consistent during long sequential and random workloads typical of database logs and virtualization hosts. The SATA 6 Gbps link caps peak throughput, so the drive will not saturate faster PCIe buses. Buyers needing higher IOPS or larger capacities should consider the 3.5 inch or 2.5 inch enterprise SSD lines instead.
