1U Rack Server for Small Business

The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR250 is a 1U rack-mount server built for small to medium business workloads. It arrives with Windows Server 2019 Standard pre-installed and a rail kit for immediate rack deployment. The system uses a single Intel Xeon E-2136 six-core processor running at 3.30 GHz with a 4.5 GHz turbo frequency. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 2666 MHz memory support everyday multitasking.

Fits Standard Racks with Four Drive Bays

The 1U chassis occupies minimal rack space and provides four 3.5-inch bays populated with four 4 TB SATA drives for 16 TB total capacity. A software RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 10 and 5 to protect data or boost throughput. Network connectivity includes two 1 GbE ports for traffic and a dedicated 1 GbE management port. Video output uses an onboard Matrox G200 with 16 MB memory.

Upgrades from Tower or Entry Servers

This bundle replaces a tower server or an older 1U system that lacks integrated rails, a current OS licence or sufficient drive bays. The jump is worthwhile when you need rack density, hardware RAID options and a supported Windows Server 2019 environment in one package. It is not suited for buyers who need redundant power supplies, GPU compute or more than one processor socket.

Questions about this item

What limits sustained throughput on the 16TB array?

The four 4TB SATA drives and the ATA/600 RAID controller cap sequential throughput well below the 1GbE network ceiling.

How much heat and noise does the single power supply produce all day?

One non-redundant supply and four 3.5-inch drives generate steady fan noise and warm exhaust in a 1U chassis.

Which rack hardware is required to mount this 1U server?

The included Lenovo SR250 rail kit fits standard 19-inch square-hole or round-hole racks.
