These improvements, coupled with the RD450's highly flexible design, make it perfect for your infrastructure, collaboration and line-of-business applications, as well as web-serving or hosting.
The Lenovo ThinkServer RD450 is a dual-socket, 2U server that offers flexible configuration options to create the right system for your needs. If you're a small- to medium-sized business, this server is ideal because of its large, cost-effective storage capacity. Dual SD card options are also available for hypervisor booting. The ThinkServer RD450 2.5-inch configuration leverages the Lenovo AnyRAID design, allowing the use of your choice of RAID adapter without taking up a PCIe slot. For more protection and performance, upgrade your ThinkServer RAID adapter for additional RAID levels and flash-backed cache.
