Compact desktop for office and home

The Lenovo ThinkCentre Mini is a small-form-factor desktop built around a 6th generation Intel Core i5-6500T processor that reaches 3.10 GHz. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a 256 GB NVMe drive provide a responsive base for everyday business applications. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed with support for English, Spanish and French.

16 GB DDR4 and 256 GB NVMe headroom

The 16 GB of DDR4 memory handles typical multitasking such as browser tabs, office suites and video calls without paging. The 256 GB NVMe solid-state drive boots the operating system quickly and holds a standard set of productivity files and local caches. Demanding creative workloads, large media libraries or virtual-machine clusters will exhaust both capacity and integrated graphics headroom.

Wireless keyboard, mouse and Wi-Fi adapter included

A wireless keyboard and mouse arrive in the box so the system is operational without extra purchases. A bundled Wi-Fi adapter adds wireless networking alongside the wired RJ-45 port. Front and rear USB 3.0 ports plus dual DisplayPort outputs cover common peripheral and dual-monitor needs. No additional software suites or recovery media are mentioned.
