About the 4XB7A79663
The Lenovo 4XB7A79663 is a high-capacity 7.68TB 2.5-inch hot-swap PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe solid-state drive built on Samsung PM9A3 V-NAND technology. Providing maximum NVMe flash capacity per drive slot, it delivers sequential read speeds up to 6,900 MB/s and random read throughput of 1,000,000 IOPS. It is optimized for large-scale all-flash databases, data lake indexing, and AI model data preparation.
Compatibility
Compatible with Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V2, SR630 V2, SR650 V3, SR630 V3, and SR665 V3 servers configured with 2.5-inch NVMe backplanes. Ships pre-installed in a genuine Lenovo hot-swap drive caddy. It is mechanically incompatible with SAS/SATA-only backplanes without PCIe routing.
How to identify a genuine unit
The front carrier bears a Lenovo 7.68TB NVMe PCIe 4.0 capacity badge. The drive mechanism label lists Lenovo option part number 4XB7A79663, FRU code 03GX053, feature code BMZ3, and Samsung OEM model MZQL27T6HBLA. In operating system utilities, nvme id-ctrl reports certified Lenovo vendor microcode.
Buying used
When purchasing used 7.68TB NVMe SSDs, query nvme smart-log data to confirm that remaining write endurance is high and that no unrecoverable read errors exist. Inspect the U.2 connector for intact gold contact pins. Ensure the unit is supplied in the original Lenovo server hot-swap caddy.
