- Up to four 2666 MHz DDR4 ECC or non-ECC UDIMMs provide speed and capacity of up to 128 GB.
- The server offers PCI Express 3.0 I/O expansion capabilities that increase the theoretical maximum bandwidth by almost 100% (8 GTps per link using 128b/130b encoding) compared to the PCI Express 2.0 (5 GTps per link using 8b/10b encoding).
- With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeon E-2200 Series processors. Such integration reduces I/O latency and increases overall system performance.
- The 12 Gbps SAS internal storage connectivity doubles the data transfer rate compared to 6 Gb SAS solutions to maximize performance of storage I/O-intensive applications.
- Flexible storage configurations support either 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays or a combination of the two (hybrid configuration). Drive bays support SAS and SATA HDDs and SSDs.
- Up to 16x 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
- Up to 8x 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
- Up to 4x 3.5-inch + 8x 2.5-inch drive bays
- Up to 8x 3.5-inch simple-swap drive bays
- The use of solid-state drives (SSDs) instead of, or along with, traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) can significantly improve I/O performance. An SSD can support up to 100 times more I/O operations per second (IOPS) than a typical HDD.
- New high-speed RAID controllers from Broadcom provide 12 Gb SAS connectivity to the drive backplanes. A variety of RAID adapters are available, with cache up to 4 GB and support for 20 drives on a single controller.
- Offers two 5.25-inch media bays with support for optical drives or backup drives.
- Supports a single M.2 drive as an additional storage/boot device.
- The server has two integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports.
- The server offers PCI Express 3.0 I/O expansion capabilities that improve the theoretical maximum bandwidth by almost 100% (8 GT/ps per link using 128b/130b encoding) compared to the previous generation of PCI Express 2.0 (5 GT/s per link using 8b/10b encoding).
- The server offers up to four PCIe 3.0 I/O expansion slots
- Support for a NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU) to enhanced graphics.
Availability and serviceability
The ST250 provides the following features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime:
- The ST250 supports UDIMM memory with ECC protection which provides error correction not available in PC-class "servers" that use parity memory. Avoiding system crashes (and data loss) due to soft memory errors means greater system uptime.
- The server offers hot-swap (HS) SSDs and HDDs, and supports RAID redundancy for data protection and greater system uptime.
- Much like hot-swap drives, simple-swap drives are mounted on an easy-to-remove tray and work with the same RAID options. Simple-swap require a system power-down before adding or replacing, however simple-swap drives are less expensive than hot-swap drives.
- The server supports hot-swap power supplies; with two installed, they form a redundant pair to provide availability for business-critical applications.
- Tool-less cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts, such as memory and adapter cards.
- A choice of affordable onboard SATA RAID or advanced hardware RAID redundancy offers data protection and greater system uptime.
- The use of SSDs can provide better reliability than the use of traditional HDDs, for greater uptime.
- The built-in XClarity Controller continuously monitors system parameters, triggers alerts, and performs recovery actions in case of failures to minimize downtime.
- Allows preventive actions in advance of possible failure, thereby increasing server uptime and application availability with Proactive Platform Alerts (including PFA and SMART alerts) for memory, internal storage (SAS/SATA HDDs and SSDs, NVMe SSDs, M.2 SSDs), RAID controllers, and server ambient and sub-component temperatures.
- Built-in diagnostics in UEFI, using Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager, speed up troubleshooting tasks to reduce service time.
- Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager supports diagnostics and can save service data to a USB key drive or remote CIFS share folder for troubleshooting and reduce service time.
- Support for the XClarity Administrator Mobile app running on a supported smartphone and connected to the server through the service-enabled USB port, enables additional local systems management functions.
- Auto restart in the event of a momentary loss of AC power (based on power policy setting in the XClarity Controller service processor)
- One-year or three-year customer-replaceable unit (CRU) and onsite limited warranty with next business day response. Optional service upgrades are available.
Manageability and security
The following powerful systems management features simplify local and remote management of the ST250:
- The server includes an XClarity Controller (XCC) to monitor server availability. Optional upgrade to XCC Advanced to provide remote control (keyboard video mouse) functions. Optional upgrade to XCC Enterprise enables the additional support for the mounting of remote media files (ISO and IMG image files), boot capture, and power capping.
- Lenovo XClarity Administrator offers comprehensive hardware management tools that help to increase uptime, reduce costs and improve productivity through advanced server management capabilities.
- New UEFI-based Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager, accessible from F1 during boot, provides system inventory information, graphical UEFI Setup, platform update function, RAID Setup wizard, operating system installation function, and diagnostic functions.
- Support for Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager which captures real-time power and temperature data from the server and provides automated controls to lower energy costs.
- Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 support enables advanced cryptographic functionality, such as digital signatures and remote attestation.
- Industry-standard Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) NI support for faster, stronger encryption.
- Intel Execute Disable Bit functionality can prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined with a supported operating system.
- Intel Trusted Execution Technology (Intel Xeon E processors only) provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance to malicious software attacks, allowing an application to run in its own isolated space, protected from all other software running on a system.
- Helps prevent unauthorized software from running on the server by protecting against boot block-level malicious software with Intel Boot Guard technology.
- Protects application code and data from disclosure or modification with Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX), enabling high-assurance security use cases, such as blockchain, identity and records privacy, secure browsing, and digital rights management (DRM).
- Physical security measures to prevent unauthorized access: Loop for a padlock to prevent the side panel from being opened and a slot at the rear of the server for a Kensington Cable Lock. Optional additional physical security features are a lockable front security door and a chassis intrusion switch (included in some models).
Energy efficiency

Processors
The ST250 supports one processor from the Intel product family formerly known by the codename "Coffee Lake-S Refresh". This includes processors from the Intel Xeon E, Core i3 and Pentium families.
Topics in this section:
E-2100 processors: The ST250 also supports Xeon E-2100 processors. For details, see https://lenovopress.com/lp0961.
The server supports the processors that are listed in the following table.
All supported processors have the following characteristics:
- 14 nm semiconductor process technology
- 8 GT/s DMI3 bus speed
- Two DDR4 memory channels
- Support for ECC memory
- 16 PCIe 3.0 I/O lanes
Integrated graphics and management: Xeon processors with a G suffix include integrated graphics, however, this functionality is not used in the ST250. Instead, graphics support is provided by XClarity Controller (XCC), or by an GPU add-in card. Similarly system management of the ST250 is handled by XCC and as a result, the AMT management processor is disabled.

UEFI operating modes
The ST250 offers preset operating modes that affect energy consumption and performance. These modes are a collection of predefined low-level UEFI settings that simplify the task of tuning the server to suit your business and workload requirements.
The following table lists the feature codes that allow you to specify the mode you wish to preset in the factory for CTO orders.
Feature code | Description |
---|---|
BFYB | Operating mode selection for: "Maximum Performance Mode" |
BFYC | Operating mode selection for: "Minimal Power Mode" |
BFYD | Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode" |
BFYE | Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency - Favoring Performance Mode" |
The preset modes for the ST250 are as follows:
- Maximum Performance Mode (feature BFYB): Achieves maximum performance but with higher power consumption and lower energy efficiency.
- Minimal Power Mode (feature BFYC): Minimize the absolute power consumption of the system.
- Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode (feature BFYD): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards power savings. This is the favored mode for SPECpower benchmark testing, for example.
- Efficiency Favoring Performance Mode (feature BFYE): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards performance. This is the favored mode for Energy Star certification, for example.
Memory options
The ST250 server supports Lenovo TruDDR4 UDIMM memory with ECC protection. 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.
TruDDR4 memory has a unique signature programmed into the DIMM, which enables ThinkSystem servers to verify whether the memory installed is qualified and supported. From a service and support standpoint, TruDDR4 memory automatically assumes the system's warranty, and service and support provided worldwide.
The ST250 supports up to 4 DIMMs. The processors have 2 memory channels and support 2 DIMMs per channel.
All DIMMs operate at a speed of 2666 MHz. However, if the processor selected has a lower memory bus speed (eg 2400 MHz - see the Processor table), then all DIMMs will operate at that lower speed.
The following table lists the memory options that are available for the ST250 server.
Part number |
Feature code |
Description | Maximum supported |
---|---|---|---|
ECC UDIMMs | |||
4ZC7A08696 | B35J | ThinkSystem 8GB TruDDR4 2666MHz (1Rx8, 1.2V) ECC UDIMM | 4 |
4ZC7A08699 | B35K | ThinkSystem 16GB TruDDR4 2666MHz (2Rx8, 1.2V) ECC UDIMM | 4 |
4ZC7A15142 | B96E | ThinkSystem 32GB TruDDR4 2666MHz (2Rx8, 1.2V) ECC UDIMM | 4 |
The following rules and recommendations apply when selecting the memory configuration:
- The server only supports UDIMMs
- The use of the 32GB DIMM is only supported with Xeon processors. It is not supported with Core or Pentium processors.
- All DIMMs must be identical. Mixing DIMMs is not supported.
- For best performance when installing two DIMMs, install one in each memory channel
Internal storage
The ST250 supports 2.5-inch hot-swap, 3.5-inch hot-swap, and 3.5-inch simple-swap drives in a variety of drive bay configurations.
In this section:
Drive bays and backplanes
The server supports up to 16 drive bays:
- Up to 16x 2.5-inch hot-swap drives
- Up to 8x 3.5-inch drives hot-swap drives
- Up to 8x 3.5-inch simple-swap drives
- A combination of 8x 2.5" hot-swap and 4x 3.5" hot-swap drives.
Hot-swap configurations SAS and SATA drives depending on the controller used (the onboard SATA controller supports SATA drives only). Simple-swap drive configurations support SATA drives only. NVMe PCIe drives are not supported with any configuration.
The different drive bay configurations supported are shown in the following figure. The server also supports one M.2 drive, installed in a slot on the system board as shown in the internal view of the server.
Figure 6. Internal drive bay configurations
The following table lists the available hot-swap backplanes and simple-swap backplates. The feature codes are used for configure-to-order and the option part numbers are for field installations & upgrades. See the Field upgrades section for details.

Configuration notes regarding drive bays with the use of the onboard SATA controller:
- If the onboard SATA controller is used, then up to 8 drives can be connected (hot-swap or simple-swap) provided no optical drive or M.2 drive is installed.
- If the onboard SATA controller is used and an optical drive or an M.2 drive is installed, then at most 6 drives can be installed. The last two drives (drive bays 6 and 7, where the first drive bay is bay 0) will not connected and should remain empty (and in the case of simple-swap drives, the SATA connections to the bays 6 & 7 should be disconnected)
- If the onboard SATA controller is used in RAID mode and an M.2 drive is installed, the M.2 cannot be used as a boot device to boot Windows.
- If the onboard SATA controller is used in RAID mode and eight drives are installed, the last two drives (drive bays 6 and 7, where the first drive bay is bay 0) cannot be used as a boot device to boot Windows.
Adapters and cabling
This section describes the adapter and cabling requirements for each drive bay configuration.
The ST250 has an onboard SATA controller for drive, optical drive and M.2 connectivity. For the drives, connections are via 5 connectors on the system board: four single-lane SATA connectors and one mini-SAS HD connector with 4 lanes.
When using the onboard SATA controller, SATA ports 6 and 7 are shared between drive bays 6 & 7, the two optical drive bays, and the M.2 connector. The connections are as follows, shown in the figure below:
- SATA ports 0, 1, 2 and 3 are connected to the first 4 drive bays (bays 0-3). These are routed to a single mini-SAS HD connector on the system board.
- SATA ports 4 and 5 are connected to bays 4 and 5
- SATA port 6 is either connected to drive bay 6 or optical drive bay 0 (lower bay).
- SATA port 7 is either connected to drive bay 7 or optical drive bay 1 (upper bay) or to the onboard M.2 connector. When an M.2 drive is inserted into the M.2 connector, it automatically connects to the SATA port and any connected drives (drive bay 7 or ODD1) are automatically disconnected.
Figure 7. Onboard SATA connections
In summary, the following combinations are supported with the onboard SATA controller:
- 8x SATA drives
- 6x SATA drives + M.2
- 6x SATA drives + M.2 + 1x optical drive
- 6x SATA drives + 2x optical drives
The ST250 also supports the use of a RAID adapter or SAS host bus adapter to support the use of SAS drives plus offering higher performance features and RAID functionality.
Configurations guidance is as follows:
- For 8-bay configurations, use one of the supported 8-port RAID adapters or HBA
- For 12-bay or 16-bay configurations, use the RAID 930-16i adapter and RAID 940-16i adapter
- It is supported to add any one of the following combinations to a RAID adapter/HBA configuration:
- 1x SATA optical drive
- 1x SATA optical drive + M.2 drive
- 2x SATA optical drive
It is not supported to add 2x SATA optical drives + M.2 drive to a RAID adapter or HBA configuration.

The ST250 server supports one M.2 form-factor SATA drive. The M.2 drive is installed in a slot directly on the system board as shown in the following figure.
Figure 8. Location of the M.2 Drive on the ST250 system board
Supported drives are listed in the Internal drive options section.
Configuration notes:
- With an M.2 drive installed, if the onboard SATA controller is used to connect 2.5" or 3.5" drives, then only six drives can be installed. The other two drive bays must remain empty or disconnected.
- Only one optical drive can be installed if an M.2 drive is used. The use of two optical drives + M.2 is not supported.
- With an M.2 drive installed, if the onboard SATA controller is used to connect 2.5" or 3.5" drives and the controller is in RAID mode, then the M.2 cannot be used as a boot device to boot Windows.
- Configurations with an M.2 drive + optical drive + backup drive (either RDX or tape) is only supported as a field upgrade. Such configurations are not supported configure-to-order (CTO).
For details about M.2 components, see the ThinkSystem M.2 Drives and M.2 Adapters product guide:
https://lenovopress.com/lp0769-thinksystem-m2-drives-adapters
Tip: The ThinkSystem M.2 Enablement Kit and ThinkSystem M.2 with Mirroring Enablement Kit that are supported in other ThinkSystem servers are not supported with the ST250.
Controllers for internal storage
The ST250 uses two onboard 6Gb SATA ports to connect the four or eight drives. Hot-swap and simple-swap SATA drives are supported. These onboard SATA ports support RSTe mode for RAID functionality or AHCI mode for JBOD support.
Virtualization support: The onboard SATA ports can be used with virtualization hypervisors, including VMware ESXi, Linux KVM, Xen, and Microsoft Hyper-V, however support is limited to AHCI (non-RAID) mode. RSTe mode is not supported with virtualization hypervisors.
Windows support: Windows only supports a RSTe-based RAID array of no more than 6 drives.
In addition to the onboard SATA controller, the ST250 with hot-swap drives supports the use of an internal RAID adapter or HBA. The following table lists the supported adapters.

Configuration notes:
- The RDX drive is attached via the internal USB 3.0 port on the system board. The USB cable ships with the drive.
- The use of an LTO tape drive requires a SAS HBA, either the 430-8i or 430-16i SAS/SATA 12Gb HBA. Details about the adapters in the SAS adapters for external storage section. The SAS cable ships with the tape drive.
- Configurations with an M.2 drive + optical drive + backup drive (either RDX or tape) is only supported as a field upgrade. Such configurations are not supported configure-to-order (CTO). For field upgrades, the drives are installed as follows:
- Optical drive goes in Bay 1 (upper bay) connected to SATA port 6
- Tape/RDX drive goes in Bay 0 (lower bay) connected to a SAS HBA or internal USB port
LTO tape drive in a rack conversion kit: The ST250 is supported installed on its side in a rack mount kit, however the use of an LTO tape drive in this configuration is supported but not recommended.
For field upgrades to add an internal tape drive, you will need to also order the cable kit listed in the following table. This kit is not needed for factory (CTO) orders.

7XA7A05926 | AVV8 | ThinkSystem External USB DVD RW Optical Disk Drive |
The drive is based on the Lenovo Slim DVD Burner DB65 drive and supports the following formats: DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-ROM, DVD-R DL, CD-RW, CD-R, CD-ROM.
I/O expansion options
The ST250 server has four PCIe 3.0 slots, as follows:
- Slot 1: PCIe 3.0 x1 full-height, half-length (x1 physical slot, closed ended)
- Slot 2: PCIe 3.0 x16 full-height, half-length (x16 physical slot, closed ended)
- Slot 3: PCIe 3.0 x4 full-height, half-length (x4 physical slot, open ended)
- Slot 4: PCIe 3.0 x4 full-height, half-length (x8 physical slot, closed ended)
Slot 3 in the ST250 is an open-end design, which means that it can accept adapters with a longer edge connector than the physical length of the slot connector. For example, if a x8 adapter is installed in the x4 slot 3 of the server, half of the edge connector will not be connected to the slot. The adapter will still function, however performance will be impacted.
Network adapters
The ST250 has two onboard Gigabit Ethernet ports, connected to a Broadcom BCM5720 embedded controller.
The following table lists other supported network adapters. The maximum supported column indicates which slots each adapter is supported in. For slot locations see the I/O expansion options section.
