Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V4

Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V4 — Product Overview

The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V4 is a 1U two-socket rack server powered by dual Intel Xeon 6 processors, supporting both Performance-core (P-core) and Efficiency-core (E-core) SKUs. It is engineered for maximum core density, delivering up to 288 cores per server in a space-efficient 1U form factor, which doubles the core count per rack compared to the previous generation.

The platform is designed to address diverse workload profiles. P-core configurations are optimized for high performance per core, making them suitable for compute-intensive workloads such as HPC, 5G Core, financial transactions, and enterprise applications. E-core configurations are built for highly parallel, scale-out workloads typical in cloud service provider and telecommunications environments, where many independent tasks can be processed simultaneously.

Memory architecture is a key strength of the SR630 V4. It supports up to 32 TruDDR5 DIMMs with capacities reaching 8TB, and also accommodates high-speed MRDIMMs up to 8000MHz for ultra-low-latency performance. Additionally, the server supports CXL 2.0 memory expansion modules, enabling flexible memory tiering for memory-bound applications.

For I/O and storage, the SR630 V4 provides up to three PCIe Gen5 slots and two OCP 3.0 slots, offering flexible networking and expansion options. It supports up to 12x 2.5-inch drives or 16x EDSFF E3.S NVMe SSDs, with optional rear drive bays and bootable M.2 RAID devices.

Efficiency and thermal management are addressed through Lenovo Neptune cooling technologies. The optional Neptune Core Module for processors and memory can reduce fan power consumption by up to 84% and cut total power use by 34% per rack, enabling sustained performance without thermal throttling. A redesigned bezel further improves airflow by 5%.
