Lenovo ThinkSystem ST250 V3 7DCEA021NA Tower Server - Xeon E-2456 3.30 GHz - 16 GB RAM

Tower server for entry workloads

The Lenovo ThinkSystem ST250 V3 7DCEA021NA is a tower server built around a single Intel Xeon E-2456 processor running at 3.30 GHz with six cores and an 80 W thermal design. It ships with 16 GB of TruDDR5 memory and a 12 Gb/s SAS RAID controller supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10 and JBOD. The platform uses the Intel C266 chipset and supports up to 128 GB of RAM for growing small-business or remote-office deployments.

Sustained operation with 300 W power

A 300 W power supply feeds the CPU, memory and the ThinkSystem RAID 5350-8i adapter continuously during long compute or storage tasks. The 80 W processor rating keeps thermal output steady so the tower chassis can maintain stable clock speeds without throttling under multi-hour loads. Memory bandwidth scales with the TruDDR5 design up to the 128 GB limit, letting the SAS controller sustain high queue depths for database or virtualization workloads. Builds needing redundant power supplies or more than one processor should evaluate other platforms.
