Lenovo ThinkSystem ST50 Tower Server 7Y49A01PAU Xeon E-2144G 8GB DDR4

Purpose-built tower server

The Lenovo ThinkSystem ST50 7Y49A01PAU is a single-socket tower system built around an Intel Xeon E-2144G quad-core processor running at 3.60 GHz with 8 MB Smart Cache. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz memory in a four-slot layout that supports up to 64 GB total capacity. A fixed 250 W Platinum power supply, integrated Intel SATA RSTe storage controller, one GbE LAN port and a 9.5 mm USB DVD±RW drive complete the baseline configuration for small-business or branch-office workloads.

Fit for entry workloads not for scale-out

This server suits organisations that need a quiet tower box for file, print, web or lightweight application serving where a single Xeon E processor and one network link are sufficient. It is not suited for buyers who need dual-processor capability, more than one network link or direct-attached storage beyond the integrated SATA RSTe controller because the board provides only a single CPU socket and one LAN port.

Expansion limited to PCIe and 3.5" SATA bays

The chassis provides two full-height half-length PCIe x16 slots and one PCIe x1 slot for add-in cards such as RAID controllers or additional NICs. Internal storage is restricted to four 3.5-inch SATA cabled drive bays, so buyers requiring hot-swap bays, 2.5-inch form factors or more than four drives must look elsewhere.
