1U rack server with Xeon E-2136

The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR250 is a 1U rack-mount server system built for small to medium business workloads. It ships with an Intel Xeon E-2136 six-core processor running at 3.30 GHz, 16 GB of DDR4 memory and 8 TB of hard drive storage across four 3.5-inch bays. A rail kit is included for straightforward cabinet installation.

Small business IT teams and remote offices

This configuration suits organisations that need a compact, single-socket platform for file, print or light database duties with software RAID 0, 1, 10 or 5. Buyers who require redundant power supplies, GPU compute capability or front-access 2.5-inch drive bays should consider other platforms.

Single 3.30 GHz Xeon E-2136 processor

The installed Intel Xeon E-2136 delivers six cores at 3.30 GHz with a 4.5 GHz turbo frequency and 12 MB cache. This single-socket design defines the compute ceiling for the chassis, so workloads demanding dual-processor scaling or higher core counts will need a different server model.

Questions about this item

Do I need a separate monitor and keyboard for initial setup of the ThinkSystem SR250?

The server includes a VGA port and USB 2.0 plus USB 3.1 Gen1 ports, so a monitor and USB keyboard can be connected directly for first-time configuration.

Can the four 3.5-inch SATA drive bays accept my existing 2 TB drives?

Yes, the unit ships with four 2 TB SATA 3.5-inch hard drives installed, and the bays support standard 6 Gb/s SATA drives of the same form factor.

How do I verify the dedicated management port is active after installation?

Connect the 1 GbE management port to your network, then access the XClarity Controller web interface from another machine using its IP address to confirm remote management is responding.
