Memory
The ThinkAgile HX3720 appliances support Lenovo TruDDR4 memory. TruDDR4 memory uses the highest-quality components sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and only memory that meets strict requirements is selected. It is compatibility tested and tuned to maximize performance and reliability.
The HX3720 supports up to 12 DIMMs with two processors. Each processor has six memory channels (two integrated memory controllers with three memory channels per memory controller), and there is one DIMM per channel.
The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:
- The appliance supports RDIMMs with rated speeds of 2666 MHz or 2933 MHz.
- The following memory capacities are supported by the appliance: 192 GB, 384 GB, 512 GB, and 768 GB.
- All DIMMs in the appliance must be of the same type, speed, rank, and capacity (the same part number or feature code).
- All DIMMs in the appliance operate at the same speed, which is determined as the lowest value of:
- DIMM rated speed (2666 MHz or 2933 MHz).
- Memory speed supported by the specific processor (2400 MHz, 2666 MHz, or 2933 MHz).
The following memory protection technologies are supported:
- ECC
- SDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs)
- ADDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs; Gold and Platinum processors only)
- Patrol scrubbing
- Demand scrubbing

^ For 25 GbE connectivity, the ConnectX-5 adapter requires the optional Mellanox QSA 100G to 25G Cable Adapters (4G17A10853) (one per port); the supported cables include 25 GbE passive DAC and active optical cables (25 GbE transceivers not supported) (see Transceivers and cables for 25 GbE SFP28 ports for details).
** Factory-installed only.
Configuration notes:
- One of the 1/10 GbE RJ-45 or 10 GbE SFP+ EIOMs is required for selection, and it provides base network connectivity. Optional expansion ports can be selected, if needed.
- One of the PCIe I/O shuttles is required for selection, and it supplies I/O slots for optional PCIe network adapters that provide expansion ports.
- The 10 GbE and 25 GbE PCIe network adapters are supported in the low-profile PCIe x8 and x16 slots supplied by the 8-slot PCIe x8 or 4-slot PCIe x16 I/O shuttles.
- The 40 GbE PCIe network adapters are supported in the low-profile PCIe x16 slots supplied by the 4-slot PCIe x16 I/O shuttle.
- Supported transceivers or DAC cables should be purchased for the SFP+, SFP28, and QSFP+ ports, and UTP Category 6 cables should be purchased for the 10 GbE RJ-45 ports. The maximum number of transceivers or cables that are supported per adapter equals the quantity of the adapter ports, and all adapter ports must have the same type of the transceiver or cable selected.
The following transceiver and cables can be purchased:
It is possible to increase the number of network ports after the initial deployment by adding more network adapters to match one of the supported network adapter configurations.

Nutanix Pro to Ultimate Upgrade | 01GU987 | AW7K | 1 |
Configuration note: Customers should request a quote for the selected Nutanix SW Upgrade part number from Lenovo and provide additional details on the existing installation and planned upgrade.
In addition to the software licenses for the specific Nutanix software edition, the ThinkAgile HX Series appliances require the Nutanix capacity licenses that are based on the total number of the processor cores and total flash storage (SSD) capacity in the appliance.
During the initial purchase, the Nutanix capacity licenses are derived by the configurator that automatically adds the required quantity of the capacity license options that are listed in the following table based on the selected processors and SSDs.
Description | Feature code | Quantity |
---|---|---|
Node Cores | B6C1 | 1 per processor core |
Node Tebibytes | B6C2 | 1 per TiB of SSD capacity |
Also, it is possible to expand storage capacity after the initial deployment by adding more drives to match one of the supported storage configurations and acquiring additional SSD capacity license options listed in the following table, as needed.
Description | Part number | Feature code | Quantity (per TiB of SSD capacity) |
---|---|---|---|
Nutanix APOS HW Upgrade for previously sold HX node: Additional TiB | 7S0P0002WW | S1NM | 1 |
Configuration notes:
- The total flash storage capacity in Tebibytes (TiB) can be calculated by multiplying the total flash storage capacity in Terabytes (TB) by 0.909495.
- When expanding storage capacity after the initial deployment, customers should request a quote for the selected HW Upgrade part numbers from Lenovo and provide additional details on the existing installation.
The following optional software licenses are available for the Nutanix software editions:

Some regions might have different warranty terms and conditions than the standard warranty. This is due to local business practices or laws in the specific region. Local service teams can assist in explaining region-specific terms when needed. Examples of region-specific warranty terms are second or longer business day parts delivery or parts-only base warranty.
If warranty terms and conditions include onsite labor for repair or replacement of parts, Lenovo will dispatch a service technician to the customer site to perform the replacement. Onsite labor under base warranty is limited to labor for replacement of parts that have been determined to be field-replaceable units (FRUs). Parts that are determined to be customer-replaceable units (CRUs) do not include onsite labor under base warranty.
If warranty terms include parts-only base warranty, Lenovo is responsible for delivering only replacement parts that are under base warranty (including FRUs) that will be sent to a requested location for self-service. Parts-only service does not include a service technician being dispatched onsite. Parts must be changed at customer’s own cost and labor and defective parts must be returned following the instructions supplied with the spare parts.
