Description

Lenovo 4M17A80600 RAID/HBA Cable Kit for ST50 X40

Overview

The Lenovo 4M17A80600 is a RAID/HBA cable kit engineered specifically for the ThinkSystem ST50 X40 server platform. When building or expanding storage connectivity on an ST50 X40, the internal cable routing between the HBA or RAID controller and the drive backplane requires the correct proprietary harness — generic cables won't align with the backplane connectors or route cleanly within the chassis. This kit provides the factory-spec cabling to complete that installation correctly the first time, avoiding improvised solutions that can create signal integrity issues or obstruct airflow in a tight 1U/tower chassis.

Compatibility

Designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem ST50 X40 server. This cable kit supports RAID controller and HBA installations within that specific platform. Verify your ST50 X40 configuration — the X40 generation uses a distinct backplane and controller slot layout compared to earlier ST50 revisions, so confirm the X40 designation before ordering. If you are sourcing components for a server storage build, cross-reference the Lenovo parts compatibility matrix for your specific controller card to ensure this kit covers all required connections.

Installation Notes

At 0.30 lb and 9.60 x 6.00 x 2.20 in, this kit is sized for internal chassis routing inside the ST50 X40 enclosure. Route cables before fully seating drive backplane screws — the cable run clearance inside the ST50 tower is tight. Follow Lenovo's torque and connector seating guidance for the target HBA or RAID card to avoid intermittent link errors at the SAS/SATA interface. No special tools are required beyond standard server assembly kit.
