Product Features
Technical Overview
At the heart of the ThinkSystem ST50 V3 is Intel's Xeon 6315P processor, a 2.80 GHz quad-core CPU with 12 MB of cache that delivers consistent performance for business applications. The system ships with 16 GB of TruDDR5 ECC unbuffered memory operating at 4.40 GHz, with three additional slots available to expand capacity to 128 GB as workload demands increase.
Storage connectivity is handled by a Serial ATA/600 controller supporting traditional hard drives and SSDs. The chassis provides four expansion bays total, including one external 5.25" bay for optical drives and three internal 3.5" LFF bays for high-capacity storage devices. For additional functionality, three PCIe expansion slots (x4, x16, x4) accommodate network cards, storage controllers, or other enterprise peripherals.
