Features
Performance, ease of use, reliability, and expansion capabilities were key considerations in the design of ThinkEdge SE350 V2. These design features make it possible for you to customize the system hardware to meet your needs today and provide flexible expansion capabilities for the future.
Features on Demand
If a Features on Demand feature is integrated in the server or in an optional device that is installed in the server, an activation key can be purchased to activate the feature. For information about Features on Demand, see:
Lenovo XClarity Controller (XCC)
The Lenovo XClarity Controller is the common management controller for Lenovo ThinkEdge server hardware. The Lenovo XClarity Controller consolidates multiple management functions in a single chip on the server system board. Some of the features that are unique to the Lenovo XClarity Controller are enhanced performance, higher-resolution remote video, and expanded security options.
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 supports Lenovo XClarity Controller 2 (XCC2). For additional information about Lenovo XClarity Controller 2 (XCC2), refer to Lenovo XClarity Controller portal page.
UEFI-compliant server firmware
Lenovo ThinkEdge firmware is Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) compliant. UEFI replaces BIOS and defines a standard interface between the operating system, platform firmware, and external devices.
Lenovo ThinkEdge servers are capable of booting UEFI-compliant operating systems, BIOS-based operating systems, and BIOS-based adapters as well as UEFI-compliant adapters.
NoteThe server does not support Disk Operating System (DOS).Large system-memory capacity
The server supports synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) registered dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) with error correcting code (ECC). For more information about the specific types and maximum amount of memory, see Technical specifications.
Integrated network support
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 provides network through either of the two following options of I/O module boards.10/25GbE I/O module board: with four 10/25GbE SFP28 connectors and two 2.5GbE RJ-45 connectors
1GbE I/O module board: with four 1GbE RJ-45 connectors and two 2.5GbE RJ-45 connectors
Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 supports up to two 15mm NVMe hot-swap drives or four 7mm SATA or NVMe hot-swap drives. With the hot-swap feature, the solid state drives can be added, removed, or replaced without turning off the server.
Mobile access to Lenovo Service Information website
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 provides a QR code on the system service label, which is on the cover of the server and can be scanned using a QR code reader and scanner with a mobile device to get quick access to the Lenovo Service Information website. The Lenovo Service Information website provides additional information for parts installation, replacement videos, and error codes for server support.
Active Energy Manager
Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager is a power and temperature management solution for data centers. Through Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager, the power consumption and temperature of Converged, NeXtScale, System x, and ThinkServer servers can be monitored and managed, and energy efficiency can be improved.
Redundant networking connection
The Lenovo XClarity Controller provides failover capability to a redundant Ethernet connection with the applicable application installed. If a problem occurs with the primary Ethernet connection, all Ethernet traffic that is associated with the primary connection is automatically switched to the optional redundant Ethernet connection. If the applicable device drivers are installed, this switching occurs without data loss and without user intervention.
Redundant cooling and optional power capabilities
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 supports a maximum of two 300-watt hot-swap power adapters or direct DC power source and three internal fans, which provide redundancy for a typical configuration. The redundant cooling by the fans in the server enables continued operation if one of the fans fails.
ThinkSystem RAID support
ThinkEdge SE350 V2 provides software redundant array of independent disks (RAID) to create configurations. The software RAID controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10.
Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
This integrated security chip performs cryptographic functions and stores private and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) specification.
Low-touch deployment
Low-touch deployment software allows remote deployment, particularly when the server is transported by non-certified carriers to remote environments with no certified personnels to set it up in person.
