Lenovo ThinkSystem SR860 V2
The ThinkSystem SR860 V2 is Lenovo's scalable 4U four-socket enterprise server powered by 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Cooper Lake). Engineered for maximum internal storage, I/O expansion, and GPU acceleration in mission-critical environments, it accommodates up to 48 SFF hot-swap drives, up to 14 PCIe slots, and up to 4 full-height, double-wide GPUs alongside 48 DDR4-3200 DIMM slots (12TB max memory). It targets core banking platforms, SAP HANA in-memory analytics, massive ERP systems, and AI-assisted data warehousing. In the secondary market, buyers should inspect the processor expansion tray mechanism, verify matching 4-way processor steppings, and ensure all four power supply bays are populated when driving multi-GPU loads.
