Lenovo 4M27A60829 ST650 V2 3.5-Inch Chassis Media Bay Enable Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4M27A60829 is a chassis media bay enable kit designed specifically for the ThinkSystem ST650 V2 tower server. If your ST650 V2 is configured without 3.5-inch drive bay support from the factory, this kit adds that capability — a straightforward hardware enablement rather than a full chassis swap. It ships at 5.10 lb and measures 3.52 x 3.14 x 4.00 inches, sized to fit the ST650 V2 bay geometry without modification to the outer chassis.

Compatibility

Designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem ST650 V2 tower server. This kit enables 3.5-inch media bay functionality in ST650 V2 units that were not originally configured with that option. It is not a universal drive kit — verify your ST650 V2 chassis revision and current bay configuration before ordering. If your server already has 3.5-inch bays provisioned from the factory, this enablement kit is not required. For storage expansion planning on server storage accessories, confirm the target bay slot count and backplane type in your ST650 V2 documentation before adding drives.

Installation Notes

Physical dimensions of 3.52 x 3.14 x 4.00 inches and a 5.10 lb unit weight indicate a bracket-and-hardware assembly rather than a single small component. Install within the ST650 V2 chassis per Lenovo's hardware maintenance guide for that server generation — consult the ST650 V2 service documentation for bay slot sequencing and any torque requirements specific to your chassis revision. No additional tools beyond standard server maintenance equipment are expected, but verify bay interlock and backplane connector alignment before seating drives post-installation.
