Lenovo 4XH7A61057 SR650 V2 2X7MM SATA RAID Enablement KIT

Lenovo 4XH7A61057 SR650 V2 2x7mm SATA RAID Enablement Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4XH7A61057 is a SATA RAID enablement kit designed for the ThinkSystem SR650 V2 server platform. It activates onboard RAID capability using the server's integrated SATA controller, letting you configure redundant drive arrays without adding a discrete RAID adapter card — a practical choice when slot budget matters or when workload requirements don't justify a full HBA. The 2x7mm form factor references the dual slim-bay cable and backplane connector geometry specific to this configuration. At 1.00 lb and 9.40 x 2.63 x 7.00 in, the kit ships as a factory-matched assembly sized for the SR650 V2 chassis bays.

Compatibility

This kit is engineered specifically for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V2 rack server. The 2x7mm designation identifies the slim SATA drive bay configuration: two 7mm-height drive slots. It is not interchangeable with SR650 Gen 1, SR630, SR650 V3, or other ThinkSystem models — confirm your exact chassis generation before ordering. UNSPSC code 43211600 classifies this as a computer storage device component, consistent with server storage infrastructure builds. If you are expanding SATA drive capacity or enabling RAID on a fresh SR650 V2 deployment, verify that the onboard SATA controller is present and not already serviced by an existing enablement kit or RAID adapter in the same bay position.

Installation Notes

Installation is chassis-internal. The kit integrates with the SR650 V2's slim drive bays and connects to the system board's onboard SATA controller. No discrete PCIe slot is consumed. Refer to the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V2 hardware maintenance guide for bay mapping, cable routing, and RAID configuration steps in the UEFI setup utility before powering on with drives installed.
