Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the ThinkSystem ST250 V3 is a single Intel Xeon E-2434 processor, a quad-core CPU operating at 3.40 GHz with 8 MB of cache. This processor, paired with the Intel C266 chipset, delivers consistent performance for virtualization, database applications, and file serving. The memory subsystem utilizes TruDDR5 technology at 4.80 GHz, offering faster data rates and improved bandwidth compared to previous generations.
Storage connectivity is managed by an Intel VROC Serial ATA/600 controller, supporting up to six drive bays with four 3.5" LFF bays that are hot-swappable for easy maintenance. Expansion is facilitated through four PCIe slots, including one x16 slot for add-in cards such as network adapters or storage controllers. Graphics are handled by an integrated Matrox controller with 16 MB of dedicated memory, sufficient for console management and basic display output.
