Configuration notes:
The Intel Xeon Gold 5218 and 5218B processors have similar specifications; however, they use
different silicon designs and cannot be mixed in the same system.
The processors that support SST-PP offer three distinct operating points that are defined by a core
count with a base speed associated with that core count. The operating point is static, it is selected
during the boot process and cannot be changed at runtime.
For the SR550 server models that come standard with one processor, the second processor can be ordered,
if required (see the following table for ordering information). The second processor must be of the same
model as the first processor. The second processor option includes a processor and a heatsink; an
additional system fan is not included and needs to be purchased with the second processor (see Cooling for
details).
Memory
The SR550 server supports up to 6 TruDDR4 memory RDIMMs when one processor is installed and up to
12 RDIMMs when two processors are installed for a total of up to 768 GB of memory capacity (up to 384 GB
per processor). Each processor has six memory channels, and there is a one DIMM per channel.
Lenovo TruDDR4 memory uses the highest-quality components sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and
only memory that meets strict requirements is selected. It is compatibility tested and tuned on every
ThinkSystem server to maximize performance and reliability.
TruDDR4 memory has a unique signature programmed into the DIMM, which enables Lenovo servers to
verify whether the memory installed is qualified and supported. Lenovo qualified and supported TruDDR4
memory is covered by Lenovo warranty, and service and support provided worldwide.
The following memory protection technologies are supported by the processor's integrated memory
controllers:
ECC
SDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs)
ADDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs; Gold and Platinum processors only)
Memory mirroring
Memory rank sparing
Patrol scrubbing
Demand scrubbing
Field upgrades
The following table lists the backplane options that can be installed as field upgrades.
Configuration notes:
The 2.5" 8-drive backplane kit (7XH7A06254) adds 8x 2.5" SAS/SATA hot-swap drive bays to the
previously configured models that support drive bay expansion capabilities.
Models without any drive bays that are based on the 16x 2.5" chassis (feature code AV0R) support
adding drive bays by using the 2.5" 8-drive backplane kit (7XH7A06254).
Models without any drive bays that are based on the 12x 3.5" chassis (feature code AV0Q) include
the Right EIA Latch with FIO (USB ports, status LEDs, and a power button). These models support
adding drive bays by using the 3.5" 8-drive backplane kit (4XH7A08770) or 3.5" 12-drive backplane
kit (4XH7A08771).
The backplane upgrade kits include drive backplanes and required SAS cables, power cables, and
drive bay fillers; storage controllers are not included.
Cable kits for 440 HBAs and RAID 940 adapters
The backplane kits listed in the preceding table include cables for use with the onboard SATA controller or
with RAID 930, 730, 530 adapters and 430 HBAs (collectively called X30 adapters). If you wish to use the
backplane kits with RAID 940 adapters or 440 HBAs (collectively called X40 adapters), then you will also
need to order an additional X40 cable kit to use instead of the cables in the backplane kit.
Tip: When adding an X40 adapter, you will order both the backplane kit and the relevant X40 cable kit,
however the SAS/SATA data cable(s) in the backplane kit will not be used.
M.2 drives
The server supports one or two M.2 form-factor SATA drives for use as an operating system boot solution.
With two M.2 drives configured, the drives are configured by default as a RAID-1 mirrored pair for
redundancy.
The M.2 drives install into an M.2 adapter which in turn is installed in a dedicated slot on the system board.
See the internal view of the server in the Components and connectors section for the location of the M.2
slot.
There are two M.2 adapters supported, as listed in the following table.
The IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager software is available from Lenovo using the ordering information
listed in the following table.
M.2 drive support: The use of M.2 drives requires an additional adapter as described in the M.2 drives
subsection.
SED support: The tables include a column to indicate which drives support SED encryption. The
encryption functionality can be disabled if needed. Note: Not all SED-enabled drives have "SED" in the
description.
Optical drives
Lenovo ThinkSystem SR550 Server (Xeon SP Gen 1 / Gen 2) (withdrawn product) 42
