Lenovo's ThinkShield Security is a transparent and comprehensive approach to security that extends to all dimensions of our data center products: from development, to supply chain, and through the entire product lifecycle.

The ThinkEdge SE350 V2 includes Platform Firmware Resiliency (PFR) hardware Root of Trust (RoT) which enables the system to be NIST SP800-193 compliant. This offering further enhances key platform subsystem protections against unauthorized firmware updates and corruption, to restore firmware to an integral state, and to closely monitor firmware for possible compromise from cyber-attacks.

PFR operates upon the following server components:

• UEFI image – the low-level server firmware that connects the operating system to the server hardware
• XCC image – the management “engine” software that controls and reports on the server status separate from the server operating system
• FPGA image – the code that runs the server’s lowest level hardware controller on the motherboard

The Lenovo Platform Root of Trust Hardware performs the following three main functions:

• Detection – Measures the firmware and updates for authenticity
• Recovery – Recovers a corrupted image to a known-safe image
• Protection – Monitors the system to ensure the known-good firmware is not maliciously written

These enhanced protection capabilities are implemented using a dedicated, discrete security processor whose implementation has been rigorously validated by leading third-party security firms. Security evaluation results and design details are available for customer review – providing unprecedented transparency and assurance.

The SE350 V2 includes support for Secure Boot, a UEFI firmware security feature developed by the UEFI Consortium that ensures only immutable and signed software are loaded during the boot time. The use of Secure Boot helps prevent malicious code from being loaded and helps prevent attacks, such as the installation of rootkits. Lenovo offers the capability to enable secure boot in the factory, to ensure end-to-end protection. Alternatively, Secure Boot can be left disabled in the factory, allowing the customer to enable it themselves at a later point, if desired.

The following table lists the relevant feature code(s).

The SE350 V2 is designed to be used in a variety of locations --  wall, ceiling, DIN-rail, table top -- as well as in a rack mount.

• Government regulations (such as those prescribed by OSHA or European Community Directives) may govern noise level exposure in the workplace and may apply to you and your server installation. The actual sound pressure levels in your installation depend upon a variety of factors, including the number of racks in the installation; the size, materials, and configuration of the room; the noise levels from other equipment; the room ambient temperature, and employee's location in relation to the equipment. Further, compliance with such government regulations depends on a variety of additional factors, including the duration of employees' exposure and whether employees wear hearing protection. Lenovo recommends that you consult with qualified experts in this field to determine whether you are in compliance with the applicable regulations.

Acoustical mode

ThinkEdge SE350 V2 supports three acoustic modes with different acoustic performance.

• Disabled: The server operates at default fan speeds. The server will not actively cap noise levels.
• Mode 1: The operation of system fans is optimized to lower the overall noise level of the server.
  • Mode 1 supports ambient temperature lower than 35°C.
  • Performance degradation may occur at heavy workloads.
• Mode 2: The operation of system fans is optimized to lower the overall noise level of the server further than Mode 1.
  • Mode 2 supports configurations with 4-core processor at ambient temperature lower than 35°C.
  • Mode 2 supports 2 slot #1 and slot #3
  • Performance degradation may occur at heavy workloads.

To change the acoustic mode, enter the Setup Utility and go to System settings > Operating Modes > Acoustic mode.

The SE350 V2 supports different acoustic modes, which optimize the operation of system fans to lower the overall noise level of the server. This is achieved by closely monitoring components to ensure they operate within the cooling available.

User can specify or change the acoustic mode in UEFI. During server operation, power capping may be enabled, if needed, to ensure that noise limits are met.

Ambient temperature management

Adjust ambient temperature when specific components are installed:

• Keep the ambient temperature to 45°C or lower when one or more NVMe drives are installed. If the ambient temperature is over 45°C, the server will have performance degradation.
• Keep the ambient temperature to 40°C or lower when AC adapters are installed.
• Keep the ambient temperature to 30°C or lower to avoid performance degradation when choosing the rack mount with the SE350 V2 1U2N Enclosure. It is advised that the ambient temperature should be kept under 27°C when AC adapters are installed.

For CTO orders, specify the operational temperature requirement and the shock & vibration requirement, by selecting the feature codes listed in the following table. Selecting the higher temperature and shock/vibration values will ensure the correct heat/vibration tolerant components are selected.

Depending on the specific configuration,SE350 V2 supports a dust filter installed at the front of the enclosure. The dust filter has a Minimum Efficiency Rating Value (MERV) of 5, per ASHRAE 52.2-2017 / 80% Average Arrestance per ASHRAE 52.1-1992.

Attention: Airborne particulates (including metal flakes or particles) and reactive gases acting alone or in combination with other environmental factors such as humidity or temperature might pose a risk to the device that is described in this document.

Risks that are posed by the presence of excessive particulate levels or concentrations of harmful gases include damage that might cause the device to malfunction or cease functioning altogether. This specification sets forth limits for particulates and gases that are intended to avoid such damage. The limits must not be viewed or used as definitive limits, because numerous other factors, such as temperature or moisture content of the air, can influence the impact of particulates or environmental corrosives and gaseous contaminant transfer. In the absence of specific limits that are set forth in this document, you must implement practices that maintain particulate and gas levels that are consistent with the protection of human health and safety. If Lenovo determines that the levels of particulates or gases in your environment have caused damage to the device, Lenovo may condition provision of repair or replacement of devices or parts on implementation of appropriate remedial measures to mitigate such environmental contamination. Implementation of such remedial measures is a customer responsibility.

    Lenovo FY24Q2 AI Announcement QH
    
    

    This Quick Hit covers the exciting announcements Lenovo is making about its commitment to AI. Lenovo has pledged to invest $1B in AI over the next three years, and has committed $100M to bolster the Lenovo AI Innovators Program to develop AI-Ready solutions faster. Two new servers are being added to the already impressive Lenovo Edge portfolio – the ThinkEdge SE350 V2 and ThinkEdge SE360 V2. These servers offer a wide operating temperature range and the ruggedness to handle shock, vibration, and airborne contaminants. The SE360 V2 supports GPUs, making it ideal for AI at the edge. Both servers support the new time-sensitive networking protocol, TSN, to ensure that response times are low and deterministic.
