Lenovo 4X97A86322 SR635 V3 R7 Sata/nvme D KIT

Lenovo 4X97A86322 SR635 V3 NVMe/SATA Drive Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A86322 is a drive kit designed for the ThinkSystem SR635 V3 server platform, supporting both NVMe and SATA interface configurations. If you are expanding or replacing storage backplanes or drive bays in an SR635 V3 deployment, the 4X97A86322 provides the hardware necessary to support mixed NVMe and SATA drive populations — giving architects flexibility to run high-speed NVMe storage alongside cost-effective SATA capacity drives in the same chassis without sourcing separate components.

Compatibility

Designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR635 V3 server. Verify your chassis configuration and backplane revision before ordering — the SR635 V3 supports multiple drive bay configurations, and this kit is specific to the SATA/NVMe-capable bay arrangement. Not interchangeable with SR635 (non-V3) or other ThinkSystem 1U/2U platforms such as the SR630 or SR650 series. Cross-reference your server's machine type and current server storage components layout against Lenovo's SR635 V3 configuration guide to confirm fitment before install.

Installation Notes

Ships from Mexico (country of origin: MX); verify import lead times if procurement timelines are tight. At 10 lb, the kit weight suggests a multi-component assembly — handle using standard server-room ESD precautions. Consult the SR635 V3 hardware maintenance manual for bay assignment rules: NVMe and SATA drives are not always hot-swappable in the same slot depending on backplane wiring, and incorrect bay population can prevent POST or limit RAID controller visibility. UNSPSC code 43211600 classifies this as a computer storage device component.
