Lenovo 4XH7A96833 SR630 V4 8X2.5 Sas/sata Backplane KIT

Lenovo 4XH7A96833 SR630 V4 8x2.5" SAS/SATA Backplane Kit

Overview

The Lenovo 4XH7A96833 is a backplane kit that adds or restores an 8-bay 2.5" SAS/SATA drive configuration to the ThinkSystem SR630 V4 rack server. Dual-protocol SAS/SATA support on the same backplane means you can mix drive types — SAS for high-cycle workloads where endurance matters, SATA for bulk capacity or cost-sensitive secondary tiers — without additional cabling infrastructure. At 10 lb, this is a full-assembly kit rather than a bare board, intended for field integration into SR630 V4 chassis during initial build-out or drive-bay expansion. If you are reconfiguring an existing SR630 V4 from a smaller bay count or replacing a failed backplane, 4XH7A96833 is the correct replacement assembly for this form factor and bay density.

Compatibility

This kit is designed for the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 V4 platform exclusively. The 8x2.5" bay configuration corresponds to the standard small-form-factor drive bay layout on the SR630 V4 — verify your chassis order code confirms this bay configuration before ordering, as the SR630 V4 ships in multiple backplane variants (NVMe-only, SAS/SATA, and hybrid configurations exist within the same chassis family). This backplane is not cross-compatible with SR630 V2 or V3 generations; connector placement and backplane management interfaces differ between generations. Consult the server components section for generation-matched accessories.

Installation Notes

Installation requires removal of the SR630 V4 top cover and existing drive cage assembly. The SAS/SATA interface routes to the system board or installed HBA/RAID adapter — confirm your installed storage controller supports the target drive protocol mix before populating bays post-installation. Manufactured in Mexico (MX). UNSPSC: 43211600.
