The Lenovo 4XB7A13911 is an enterprise 14TB 7,200 RPM 3.5-inch large form factor (LFF) hard disk drive with a 12Gb/s dual-port SAS interface, manufactured by Seagate based on the Exos X16 platform (ST14000NM002G).

About the 4XB7A13911
4XB7A13911 is Lenovo's enterprise-class 16TB 7200 RPM 3.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s hot-swap hard drive packaged in a ThinkSystem hot-swap caddy. Based on Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC550 helium-sealed drive architecture, it provides massive storage density for backup arrays, object storage nodes, and video surveillance repositories. In Lenovo's portfolio, it sits in the high-capacity nearline storage tier, replacing older 12TB and 14TB models while preceding 18TB and 20TB options.
Compatibility
The drive fits 3.5-inch large-form-factor (LFF) hot-swap drive bays in ThinkSystem servers including SR650, SR650 V2, SR650 V3, SR630, and SR550, as well as external storage expansion units. It requires a SATA-compatible host bus adapter, RAID controller, or onboard SATA backplane port. It does not fit 2.5-inch small-form-factor drive bays. Buyers should ensure their storage controller firmware and OS partition table (GPT) support capacities greater than 2TB.
How to identify a genuine unit
A genuine Lenovo unit includes a Lenovo ThinkSystem 3.5-inch drive sled with blue release latch and a top label displaying option part number 4XB7A13911, FRU number 02JD023 or SP47A13911, and feature code B7Y8. Beneath the Lenovo label is the original Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC550 label showing model WUH721816ALE6L4. In Lenovo XClarity, the drive reports Lenovo authorized firmware and genuine drive status.
Buying used
Check the drive's SMART attributes using smartctl, specifically inspecting power-on hours, reallocated sector count (attribute 5), current pending sectors (attribute 197), and the helium level status indicator. Ensure the hot-swap tray is straight, the latch spring operates smoothly, and the drive mounting screws are present. Confirm that the drive was not decommissioned from a locked OEM appliance that flashed non-standard SATA sector formatting.
