CUTTING-EDGE POWER.
ThinkSTaTion® S20 & D20
The ThinkStation® is a high performance, high
quality workstation designed to run graphically
and computationally intensive applications
for professional users who require a level of
performance unattainable with a standard
desktop PC.
TWO WAYS TO INNOVATE
•All Lenovo ThinkStation workstations share common features that
showcase Lenovo's dedication to quality, including quiet acoustics, a cool
thermal design, RAID standard, back-lit front I/Os and tool-less upgrades.
However, both the S20 and D20 also feature unique qualities that makes
them a great match for your individual needs.
•The single-processor Intel
workstation solution. Offering a robust 625W power supply, even the S20
allows for easy upgrades and offers support for two high-end powered
graphics adapters. It is ideal for 2D digital content creators and users of
mid-range CAD and EDA applications.
•The dual-processor Intel
powerhouse. Offering 12 DIMM slots and RDIMM technology, the D20
supports up to 192GB* of blazing-fast DDR3 memory and is perfect for
users of memory and CPU-hungry applications like high-end CAD/CAM/
CAE, 3D digital content creation and professional video editing software.
The D20 also offers 1394 and SAS support standard, support for
NVIDIA's Tesla™ C1060 GPU computing solution and NVIDIA SL
on select Quadro cards, as well as more expandability options than
the S Series.
