M.2 is a solid-state drive (SSD) form factor primarily used as an operating system boot solution. Lenovo Think System servers support M.2 drives with the addition of a supported M.2 adapter.\n\n The M.2 drives install into an M.2 adapter which in turn is installed in a dedicated slot on the system board of the Think System server. With two M.2 drives configured, the drives are configured by default as a RAID-1 mirrored pair for redundancy.\n\n There are two M.2 adapters supported:\n- Single M.2 Adapter, which supports one M.2 drive; available as the Think System M.2 Enablement Kit\n- Dual M.2 Adapter, which supports one or two M.2 drives; available as the Think System M.2 with Mirroring Enablement Kit Feature Feature Value Host interface M.2 Output interface M.2 Internal Y Product colour Black, Blue, Green Easy to install YRAID levels 0, 1, JBODPlug & Play Y ...

The Intel X710 family of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (Gb E) server network adapters addresses the demanding needs of the next-generation data center. By providing unmatched features for server & network virtualization, small packet performance, & low power; the data center network is flexible, scalable, & resilient.\n\n The X710 is available in three host connections: a standard PCIe host interface, a Mezzanine LOM (ML2) host interface for Think System & System x servers, & an Any Fabric host interface for Think Server systems.\n\n- VXLAN/NVGRE Hardware Offloads: These stateless offloads preserve application performance for overlay networks. With these offloads, it is possible to distribute network traffic across CPU cores. At the same time, X710 offloads LSO, GSO, & checksum from the host software, which reduces CPU overhead\n- Mobile & cloud application acceleration: Intel&153;s Data Plan Development Kit (DPDK) delivers an open driver where users can fine-tune small packet performance, which delivers line-rate at 128 byte, & near line-rate at 64 byte\n- Low latency: Intel Ethernet Flow Director delivers hardware-based application steering & Intel Data Direct I/O makes the processor cache the primary destination & source of I/O data rather than main memory. Combined, latency is reduced & Intel reports a three-fold improvement in RPS\n- Virtualization performance: With Intel Virtualization Technology (VT), the X710 family of adapters delivers outstanding I/O performance in virtualized server environments. These adapters reduce I/O bottlenecks by providing intelligent offloads for networking traffic per virtual machine (VM), which enables near-line rate speeds for small packets & supports almost an unlimited amount of isolated traffic flows so that you can scale your cloud environment\n- Next-generation VMDq: The X710 adapters support up to 256 VMDq VMs & offer enhanced Quality of Service (Qo S) feature by providing weighted round-robin servicing for the Tx data. The adapters offload the data-sorting functionality from the hypervisor to the network silicon, which improves data throughput & CPU usage\n- PCI-SIG SR-IOV implementation: Provides an implementation of the PCI-SIG standard for I/O Virtualization. The physical configuration of each port is divided into multiple virtual ports. Each virtual port is assigned to an individual VM directly by bypassing the virtual switch in the Hypervisor, which results in near-native performance\n- VM load balancing: Provides traffic load balancing (Tx & Rx) across VMs that are bound to the team interface. It also provides fault tolerance if a switch, port, cable, or adapter fails Feature Feature Value Connectivity technology Wired Host interface PCI Express Interface Fiber Fiber ports quantity 2 Fiber optic connector SFP+ Maximum data transfer rate 10000 Mbit/s Networking standards IEEE 802.1Q, IEEE 802.1ad, IEEE 802.1as, IEEE 802.1p, IEEE 802.3ae, IEEE 802.3x Wake-on-LAN ready Y Flow control support Y Jumbo frames support YVLAN tagging Yi SCSI support Y Jumbo frames 9728 Internal Y Recommended usage Server Product colour Black, Green Certification EN55022n EN55024n EN 61000-3-2n EN 61000-3-3n ICES-003, Issue-004n FCC 47 CFR Part 15 Class An VCCIn AS/NZS CISPR 22 / C-tickn RRL for KCn BSMIn UL 94 V-1 Operating temperature (T-T)0
