Lenovo 4X97A87900 SR635 V3 M.2 Sata/nvme CA KIT

Lenovo 4X97A87900 M.2 SATA/NVMe Carrier Kit for SR635 V3

Overview

The Lenovo 4X97A87900 is an M.2 drive carrier kit engineered for the ThinkSystem SR635 V3 server platform. It provides the mechanical mounting and connectivity infrastructure needed to install M.2 form-factor storage — supporting both SATA and NVMe interfaces — directly into the SR635 V3 chassis. If you're adding boot drives or supplemental high-speed storage to an SR635 V3 without wanting to consume a full 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch drive bay, this kit is the path to do it cleanly using the server's native M.2 slots. Dual-interface support (NVMe and SATA via a single kit) means you're not locked into one storage protocol — install a NVMe drive for low-latency workloads or a SATA M.2 for cost-sensitive boot/OS use cases, depending on what the deployment calls for.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR635 V3 rack server. This kit is a platform-specific part — do not assume compatibility with earlier SR635 or SR645 generations without verifying the Lenovo option compatibility matrix for your chassis. M.2 carrier kits are not interchangeable across server generations, and using the wrong carrier risks mechanical misalignment or non-detection of the drive. Confirm your server's chassis generation (V3 specifically) before ordering. Supports M.2 drives with NVMe or SATA interfaces — the specific M.2 key and length compatibility (e.g., 2280, 22110) should be verified against the SR635 V3 Hardware Maintenance Manual for your exact configuration.
