* Processors with a U suffix and the 8351N processor are only supported one processor per server; as a result, there is no option part number for a second processor.
† The server supports two processors. In the configurator, you can select 1 or 2 processor feature codes. However for option part numbers, only 1 is supported per server. The option part numbers are only for use when adding a second processor. It is not supported to use the option part numbers to upgrade any processors already installed.

BFYB Operating mode selection for: "Maximum Performance Mode"
BFYC Operating mode selection for: "Minimal Power Mode"
BFYD Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode"
BFYE Operating mode selection for: "Efficiency - Favoring Performance Mode"

The preset modes for the ST650 V2 are as follows:

  • Maximum Performance Mode (feature BFYB): Achieves maximum performance but with higher power consumption and lower energy efficiency.
  • Minimal Power Mode (feature BFYC): Minimize the absolute power consumption of the system.
  • Efficiency Favoring Power Savings Mode (feature BFYD): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards power savings. This is the favored mode for SPECpower benchmark testing, for example.
  • Efficiency Favoring Performance Mode (feature BFYE): Maximize the performance/watt efficiency with a bias towards performance. This is the favored mode for Energy Star certification, for example.

For details about these preset modes, and all other performance and power efficiency UEFI settings offered in the ST650 V2, see the paper "Tuning UEFI Settings for Performance and Energy Efficiency on Intel Xeon Scalable Processor-Based ThinkSystem Servers", available from https://lenovopress.lenovo.com/lp1477.

Memory options

The ST650 V2 uses Lenovo TruDDR4 memory and supports 16 DIMMs per processor or 32 DIMMs with two processors installed. Each processor has eight memory channels with two DIMMs per channel. With 256 GB 3DS RDIMMs installed, the ST650 V2 supports a total of 8 TB of system memory.

The ST650 V2 also supports Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series, as described in the Persistent Memory section.

Memory operates at up to 3200 MHz at two DIMMs per channel, depending on the memory DIMMs and processor model selected. If the processor selected has a lower memory bus speed, then all DIMMs will operate at that lower speed.

The following table lists the memory options that are available for the server.

Lenovo TruDDR4 memory uses the highest quality components that are sourced from Tier 1 DRAM suppliers and only memory that meets the strict requirements of Lenovo is selected. It is compatibility tested and tuned to maximize performance and reliability. From a service and support standpoint, Lenovo TruDDR4 memory automatically assumes the system warranty, and Lenovo provides service and support worldwide.

The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:

  • The following DIMM quantities are supported per processor: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 16. Other quantities per processor are not supported.
  • The server supports RDIMMs and 3DS RDIMMs; UDIMMs and LRDIMMs are not supported
  • Mixing RDIMMs and 3DS RDIMMs is not supported
  • Mixing x4 and x8 DIMMs is supported

For best performance, consider the following:

  • Populate memory DIMMs in quantities of 8 or 16 per processor, so that all memory channels are used.
  • Populate memory channels so they all have the same total memory capacity.
  • Ensure all memory controllers on a processor socket have the same DIMM configuration.
  • All processor sockets on the same physical server should have the same DIMM configuration.

The following memory protection technologies are supported:

  • ECC
  • SDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs; look for "x4" in the DIMM description)
  • ADDDC (for x4-based memory DIMMs)
  • Memory mirroring

Note: Memory sparing is not supported

If memory channel mirroring is used, then DIMMs must be installed in pairs or sets of three (minimum of one pair or set of three per processor), and all DIMMs in the pair or set of three must be identical in type and size. 50% of the installed capacity is available to the operating system. Memory rank sparing is not supported.

Persistent memory

The ST650 V2 server supports Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series, a new class of memory and storage technology explicitly architected for data center usage. Persistent memory is an innovative technology that delivers a unique combination of affordable large memory capacity and persistence (non-volatility). It offers significantly lower latency than fetching data from SSDs, even NVMe SSDs, and offers higher capacities than system memory.

Persistent memory technology can help boost the performance of data-intensive applications such as in-memory analytics, databases, content delivery networks, and high performance computing (HPC), as well as deliver consistent service levels at scale with higher virtual machine and container density. When data is stored closer to the processor on nonvolatile media, applications can see significant overall improvement in performance.

The following table lists the ordering information for the supported persistent memory modules.

The following are the requirements when installing persistent memory (PMem) modules when installed in a two-socket server with third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors ("Ice Lake" processors):

  • App Direct Mode and Memory Mode are supported. Mixed Mode is not supported.
  • All PMem modules operate at 3200 MHz when the installed processor runs the memory bus at 3200 MHz.
  • All installed PMem modules must be the same size. Mixing PMem modules of different capacities is not supported.
  • Maximum 8 PMem modules per processor (install 1 in each memory channel).
  • For each memory channel with both a PMem module and a memory DIMM installed, the PMem module is installed in channel slot 1 (DIMM1, closer to the processor) and the DIMM is installed in channel slot 0 (DIMM0).
  • To maximize performance, balance all memory channels
  • Both interleaved and non-interleaved modes are supported.
  • Memory mirroring is not supported with PMem modules installed

For details, including App Direct Mode and Memory Mode configuration requirements, see the Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series product guide, https://lenovopress.com/LP1380

Figure 7. ST650 V2 drive bays

The four configurations are as follows:

  • 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
    • Up to 32 drive bays, 8 drives per backplane
    • All 32 drives can be SAS or SATA
    • 16 drives can can be AnyBay drive bays or NVMe drive bays
    • Optional support for 2 media bays
  • 12x 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
    • Up to 12 drive bays, 4 drives per backplane
    • All 12 drives can be SAS or SATA
    • 8 drives can can be AnyBay drive bays or NVMe drive bays
    • Optional support for 2 media bays
    • Can be upgraded to 16x 3.5-inch drive bays by removing the media bays and installing 4XF7A79787.
  • 16x 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays
    • Up to 16 drive bays, 4 drives per backplane
    • All 16 drives can be SAS or SATA
    • 8 drives can can be AnyBay drive bays or NVMe drive bays
    • No support for 2 media bays
  • 12x 3.5-inch simple-swap drive bays
    • Up to 12 drive bays supporting SATA drives, 4 drives per backplate
    • No support for SAS, AnyBay or NVMe drives
    • Optional support for 2 media bays

It is also possible to configure a server without any drives or backplanes. Drives and backplanes can be added in the field as described in the field upgrades section.

Backplanes

The backplanes used to provide the drive bays are listed in the following table.

The table also lists the ordering information for the media bay that provides two 5.25-inch drive bays at the top of the server for a tape drive or optical drive. The media bays are not available when 16x 3.5-inch drive bays are configured.

Field upgrades: All backplanes are available as part numbers for field upgrades complete with the necessary cables, as listed in the table and described in the Field upgrades section below.

Common backplanes: Two of the 2.5-inch backplanes listed in the above table use the same physical circuit board. Feature codes BH8B and BH8D use a backplane with eight bays where each bay has both a SAS/SATA connection and an NVMe connection. The difference is which connectors on the backplane are cabled: NVMe and SAS/SATA or just NVMe. Both feature codes use backplane SBB7A29600. Similarly 3.5-inch backplanes BA5R (AnyBay) and BCQS (NVMe) share a common backplane, SBB7A17369.

NVMe drive support

The ST650 V2 supports NVMe drives to maximize storage performance.

Depending on the configuration, NVMe drives are connected ether to onboard NVMe ports or to retimer adapters installed in PCIe slots.

  • 2.5-inch drive configurations:
    • Up to 16 NVMe drives without oversubscription (that is, each x4 drive has a full x4 (4 lanes) connection to the processor)
    • Up to 8 drives can be connected to onboard NVMe ports
    • Other drives in the configuration are connected via retimer adapters
  • 3.5-inch hot-swap drive configurations:
    • Up to 8 NVMe drives without oversubscription (that is, each x4 drive has a full x4 (4 lanes) connection to the processor)
    • All 8 drives can be connected to onboard NVMe ports
    • Alternatively, drives can be configured using retimer adapters

PCIe 4.0 NVMe support: The onboard NVMe ports connected to CPU 1 (NVMe ports 1 & 2) operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds in the ST650 V2 as shown in the following figure. That means any PCIe 4.0 drives installed in backplanes connected to those ports will operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds. NVMe drives connected to the NVMe ports connected to CPU 2 (NVMe ports 3 & 4) or connected to retimer adapters operate at PCIe 4.0 (Gen 4) speeds if the drives themselves support that speed. See the ST650 V2 Backplane/Backplate Cable Routing Guide for details about what connections are used in each configuration, http://thinksystem.lenovofiles.com/help/index.jsp.

Onboard NVMe port speeds
Figure 8. Onboard NVMe port speeds

The specifics of the drive bay configurations are covered in the Supported drive bay combinations and Controller selections sections.

The tables in those sections indicate the number of NVMe drives in each configuration plus the subscription ratio. The subscription ratio is the number of PCIe lanes from the processor compared to the number of lanes to the drives. A ratio of 1:1 means all drives get the full number of lanes they need to maximize drive performance (currently 4 lanes per drive). A ratio of 1:2 means each drive only gets the half the bandwidth from the processor.

Supported drive bay combinations

This section describes the various combinations of 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch drives that the server supports. The combinations are based on whether the drives are 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch.The drives are connected using backplanes (hot-swap drives) or backplates (simple-swap drives). Up to four backplanes/backplates are installed, numbered 1-4 from the bottom as shown in the following figure.

Field upgrades

The ST650 V2 is orderable without drive bays, allowing you to add a backplane, cabling and controllers as field upgrades. The server also supports upgrading some configurations by adding additional drive bay backplanes (for example, upgrading from 8 to 16x 2.5-inch drive bays).

Upgrade path: The key criteria for upgrade support is to ensure that the target configuration is one of the supported drive bay configurations as listed in the Supported drive bay combinations section.

To add drive bays you will need to order the appropriate backplane kit(s). ST650 V2 backplane kits include the necessary cables.

The following table lists the part numbers for drive backplanes and the media bay cage. For the use of these cables to add drives, see the Backplane/Backplate Cable Routing section of the Users Guide, available from: https://pubs.lenovo.com/st650-v2/backplane_backplate_ic_topic

Configuration requirements:

  • E810 Ethernet and X350 RAID/HBAs: The use of both an Intel E810 network adapter and an X350 HBA/RAID adapter (9350, 5350 and 4350) is currently not supported in ThinkSystem servers. For details see Support Tip HT513226. Planned support for this combination of adapters is 2Q/2024.

The onboard SATA controller has the following features:

  • Controller integrated into the Intel PCH
  • Supports up to 12 SATA drives
  • 6 Gbps SATA host interface
  • Supports RAID-0, 1, 5, 10 only on 8 drives (Intel VROC SATA RAID, previously known as RSTe)
  • Supports JBOD
  • Supports HDDs and SSDs; can be mixed

RAID support limited to 8 drives: With three 3.5-inch simple-swap backplates, the ST650 V2 supports 12 SATA drives connected to the onboard SATA controller, however only the first 8 drives can be configured in RAID arrays. The remaining 4 drives can only be configured as JBOD.

The onboard NVMe support has the following features:

  • Controller integrated into the Intel processor
  • Supports up to 16 NVMe drives
  • Each drive has PCIe 3.0 x4 host interface
  • Supports JBOD - Intel and non-Intel NVMe SSDs - no license required
  • Supports RAID-0, 1, 5, 10 (Intel VROC NVMe RAID) - Intel NVMe SSDs only unless VROC Premium license is installed
  • VROC Premium also extends to any drives connected via an NVMe Adapter (switch or retimer)

Intel VROC onboard RAID

Intel VROC (Virtual RAID on CPU) is a feature of the Intel processor that enables RAID support.

There are two separate functions of VROC in the ST650 V2:

  • Intel VROC SATA RAID, formerly known as Intel RSTe
  • Intel VROC NVMe RAID

VROC SATA RAID (RSTe) is available and supported with all SATA drives. It offers a 6 Gb/s connection to each drive and on the ST650 V2 implements RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10. RAID 1 is limited to 2 drives per array, and RAID 10 is limited to 4 drives per array. Hot-spare functionality is also supported.

VROC NVMe RAID offers RAID support for any NVMe drives directly connected to the ports on the server's system board or via adapters such as NVMe retimers or NVMe switch adapters. On the ST650 V2, RAID levels implemented are based on the VROC feature selected as indicated in the following table. RAID 1 is limited to 2 drives per array, and RAID 10 is limited to 4 drives per array. Hot-spare functionality is also supported.

Performance tip: For best performance with VROC NVMe RAID, the drives in an array should all be connected to the same processor. Spanning processors is possible however performance will be unpredictable and should be evaluated based on your workload.

The ST650 V2 supports the VROC NVMe RAID offerings listed in the following table. The VROC Intel SSD Only offering only supports RAID on Intel branded NVMe SSDs; non-Intel branded NVMe SSDs cannot be configured in a RAID array.

Tip: These feature codes and part numbers are only for VROC RAID using NVMe drives, not SATA drives

Configuration notes:

  • If a feature code is ordered in a CTO build, the VROC functionality is enabled in the factory. For field upgrades, order a part number and it will be fulfilled as a Feature on Demand (FoD) license which can then be activated via the XCC management processor user interface.

Virtualization support: Virtualization support for Intel VROC is as follows:

  • VROC SATA RAID (RSTe): VROC SATA RAID is not supported by virtualization hypervisors such as ESXi, KVM, Xen, and Hyper-V. Virtualization is only supported on the onboard SATA ports in AHCI (non-RAID) mode.
  • VROC (VMD) NVMe RAID: VROC (VMD) NVMe RAID is supported by ESXi, KVM, Xen, and Hyper-V. ESXi support is limited to RAID 1 only; other RAID levels are not supported. Windows and Linux OSes support VROC RAID NVMe, both for host boot functions and for guest OS function, and RAID-0, 1, 5, and 10 are supported. On ESXi, VROC is supported with both boot and data drives.

For specifications about the RAID adapters and HBAs supported by the ST650 V2, see the ThinkSystem RAID Adapter and HBA Comparison, available from:
https://lenovopress.com/lp1288-lenovo-thinksystem-raid-adapter-and-hba-reference#st650-v2-support=ST650%2520V2

For details about these adapters, see the relevant product guide:

Internal drive options

The following tables list the drive options for internal storage of the server.

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.

PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive support: When installed in the ST650 V2 server and connected to onboard NVMe ports 1 or 2, PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives will operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds.

https://lenovopress.com/lp1288#st650-v2-support=ST650%20V2&internal-or-external-ports=External

Mixing storage adapter families: The following HBA/RAID adapter combinations are supported:

  • X30 external adapters with other X30 adapters (internal or external)
  • X40 external adapters with other X40 adapters (internal or external)
  • X40 external adapters with X350 internal adapters

The following HBA/RAID adapter combinations are not supported:

  • X30 adapters (internal or external) with X40 adapters (internal or external)
  • X30 adapters (internal or external) with X350 internal adapters

The RAID 930-8e and RAID 940-8e use a flash power module (supercap), which can be installed in one of four locations on the air baffle in the server. The number of 930/940-8e RAID adapters supported is based on how many supercaps can be installed in the server. If an internal 930i or 940i or 9350i RAID adapter with flash power modules is installed, the maximum number of 930/940-8e adapters supported is reduced by 1.

* When a double-wide GPU is installed in slot 1, 3, 5 or 7, the adjacent slot 2, 4, 6 or 8 respectively is not available

Configuration rules:

  • Some NVIDIA A Series GPUs are available as two feature codes, one with a CEC chip and one without a CEC chip (ones without the CEC chip have "w/o CEC" in the name). The CEC is a secondary Hardware Root of Trust (RoT) module that provides an additional layer of security, which can be used by customers who have high regulatory requirements or high security standards. NVIDIA uses a multi-layered security model and hence the protection offered by the primary Root of Trust embedded in the GPU is expected to be sufficient for most customers. The CEC defeatured products still offer Secure Boot, Secure Firmware Update, Firmware Rollback Protection, and In-Band Firmware Update Disable. Specifically, without the CEC chip, the GPU does not support Key Revocation or Firmware Attestation. CEC and non-CEC GPUs of the same type of GPU can be mixed in field upgrades.

  • All GPUs installed in a zone must be identical
  • Dual-rotor cooling fans are required
  • When any GPUs are installed, only two backplanes are supported and no optical drive or tape drive can be installed.
  • The following rules apply to all GPUs except the RTX A2000:
    • When a GPU is installed in Zone 1 (upper slots, slots 1-4), a RAID card, HBA or Retimer cannot also be installed in that zone
    • When a GPU is installed in Zone 2 (lower slots, slots 5-9), a RAID card, HBA or Retimer cannot be installed in slots 5-8. Slot 9 can, however, be used to install the storage adapter

For information about these GPUs, see the ThinkSystem GPU Summary, available at:
https://lenovopress.com/lp0768-thinksystem-thinkagile-gpu-summary

The following table lists the field upgrades for GPUs.

Zones: PCIe slots in the server are grouped into zones:

  • Zone 1 = slots 1, 2, 3, 4 (upper slots)
  • Zone 2 = slots 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (lower slots)

Cooling

The ST650 V2 server has up to 4x hot-swap variable-speed 92 mm fans, either Performance or Standard fans, depending on the configuration. Performance fans are dual-rotor counter-rotating units that have two separate spinning fan rotors, one in front of the other, which rotate in opposite directions. Standard fans are single-rotor units.

Performance fans are N+1 rotor redundant and in the event of a rotor failure, the system will continue with no loss of performance provided the ambient temperature is 27 °C or lower. If the ambient temperature is above 27 °C, performance may be degraded. Standard fans are not redundant, and in the event of a fan failure, the server will continue however performance will be degraded.

The server also has one or two additional fans integrated in each of the two power supplies.

Depending on the configuration, Standard fans will be sufficient to provide the necessary air flow, however for CTO orders it will be possible in the DCSC configurator to override the default selection and select Performance fans. Fan types cannot be mixed. Ordering information is listed in the following table.

Platform Firmware Resiliency - Lenovo ThinkShield

Lenovo's ThinkShield Security is a transparent and comprehensive approach to security that extends to all dimensions of our data center products: from development, to supply chain, and through the entire product lifecycle.

The ThinkSystem ST650 V2 includes Platform Firmware Resiliency (PFR) hardware Root of Trust (RoT) which enables the system to be NIST SP800-193 compliant. This offering further enhances key platform subsystem protections against unauthorized firmware updates and corruption, to restore firmware to an integral state, and to closely monitor firmware for possible compromise from cyber-attacks.

PFR operates upon the following server components:

  • UEFI image – the low-level server firmware that connects the operating system to the server hardware
  • XCC image – the management “engine” software that controls and reports on the server status separate from the server operating system
  • FPGA image – the code that runs the server’s lowest level hardware controller on the motherboard

The Lenovo Platform Root of Trust Hardware performs the following three main functions:

  • Detection – Measures the firmware and updates for authenticity
  • Recovery – Recovers a corrupted image to a known-safe image
  • Protection – Monitors the system to ensure the known-good firmware is not maliciously written

These enhanced protection capabilities are implemented using a dedicated, discrete security processor whose implementation has been rigorously validated by leading third-party security firms. Security evaluation results and design details are available for customer review – providing unprecedented transparency and assurance.

The ST650 V2 includes support for Secure Boot, a UEFI firmware security feature developed by the UEFI Consortium that ensures only immutable and signed software are loaded during the boot time. The use of Secure Boot helps prevent malicious code from being loaded and helps prevent attacks, such as the installation of rootkits. Lenovo offers the capability to enable secure boot in the factory, to ensure end-to-end protection. Alternatively, Secure Boot can be left disabled in the factory, allowing the customer to enable it themselves at a later point, if desired.

The following table lists the relevant feature code(s).

Table 67. Secure Boot options
Part number Feature code Description Purpose
CTO only AUK7 TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot Configure the system in the factory with Secure Boot enabled.
CTO only B0MK Enable TPM 2.0 Configure the system without Secure Boot enabled. Customers can enable Secure Boot later if desired.

Tip: If Secure Boot is not enabled in the factory, it can be enabled later by the customer. However once Secure Boot is enabled, it cannot be disabled.

  • Assessment Services

    An Assessment helps solve your IT challenges through an onsite, multi-day session with a Lenovo technology expert. We perform a tools-based assessment which provides a comprehensive and thorough review of a company's environment and technology systems. In addition to the technology based functional requirements, the consultant also discusses and records the non-functional business requirements, challenges, and constraints. Assessments help organizations like yours, no matter how large or small, get a better return on your IT investment and overcome challenges in the ever-changing technology landscape.

  • Design Services

    Professional Services consultants perform infrastructure design and implementation planning to support your strategy. The high-level architectures provided by the assessment service are turned into low level designs and wiring diagrams, which are reviewed and approved prior to implementation. The implementation plan will demonstrate an outcome-based proposal to provide business capabilities through infrastructure with a risk-mitigated project plan.

  • Basic Hardware Installation

    Lenovo experts can seamlessly manage the physical installation of your server, storage, or networking hardware. Working at a time convenient for you (business hours or off shift), the technician will unpack and inspect the systems on your site, install options, mount in a rack cabinet, connect to power and network, check and update firmware to the latest levels, verify operation, and dispose of the packaging, allowing your team to focus on other priorities.

  • Deployment Services

    When investing in new IT infrastructures, you need to ensure your business will see quick time to value with little to no disruption. Lenovo deployments are designed by development and engineering teams who know our Products & Solutions better than anyone else, and our technicians own the process from delivery to completion. Lenovo will conduct remote preparation and planning, configure & integrate systems, validate systems, verify and update appliance firmware, train on administrative tasks, and provide post-deployment documentation. Customer’s IT teams leverage our skills to enable IT staff to transform with higher level roles and tasks.

  • Integration, Migration, and Expansion Services

    Move existing physical & virtual workloads easily, or determine technical requirements to support increased workloads while maximizing performance. Includes tuning, validation, and documenting ongoing run processes. Leverage migration assessment planning documents to perform necessary migrations.
