Introduction

Each Lenovo ThinkSystem SN550 V2 Type 7Z69 compute node supports up to two 2.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), Serial ATA (SATA), Non-Volatile Memory express (NVMe) drives, or supports up to six EDSFF drives.

When you receive your Lenovo ThinkSystem SN550 V2 Type 7Z69 compute node, refer to the Setup Guide to set up the compute node, install optional devices, and perform the initial configuration of the compute node. Meanwhile, the Maintenance Manual contains information to help you solve problems that might occur in your Lenovo ThinkSystem SN550 V2 Type 7Z69 compute node. It describes the diagnostic tools that come with the compute node, error codes and suggested actions, and instructions for replacing failing components.

The compute node comes with a limited warranty. For details about the warranty, see Lenovo Statement of Limited Warranty

For details about your specific warranty, see Lenovo Product Warranty Plans
