High Performance

Enterprise Features in a Tiny Package

The single-processor Lenovo System x3250 M6 packs enterprise
class management, high-availability and security features into a
tiny 1U form factor. Centrally automate discovery, inventory
tracking, real-time monitoring, provisioning, firmware updates,
fault detection and alert handling with Lenovo XClarity, a
simple-to-use resource management tool. Facilitate high uptime
with redundant/hot-swap drives, fans and power supplies.
Protect your hardware and firmware with integrated industry­unique Lenovo Trusted Platform Assurance, which includes a
built-in Trusted Platform Module and optional security bezel.
That’s just the starting point.

The x3250 M6 offers a choice of the latest Intel® processors
(from Celeron
faster than the previous generation. Plus, get up to 64GB of
lightning-quick, low-latency 2133MHz TruDDR4 UDIMM memory
for a robust system capable of powering workloads such as
infrastructure and retail point of sale. The system comes with
two integrated 1GbE ports and support for up to two optional
10GbE ports to handle the heaviest network communications.
You also get storage flexibility and up to 24TB of capacity from
a choice of up to four 3.5-inch hard disk drives (HDDs) or eight

2.5-inch HDDs/solid state drives (SSDs) in simple-swap or
hot-swap formats.

Business Value

In addition to its affordable price, the x3250 M6 can save you
money in many ways. Choose a model with a single fixed 300W
power supply unit (PSU) or dual hot-swap/redundant 460W
PSUs; both are 80 PLUS Gold-rated, for up to 92 percent energy
efficiency for energy savings. Low-voltage Xeon
can use as little as 25W, and TruDDR4 DIMMs consume only

1.2V (35 percent less than 1.35V DDR3L DIMMs). And XClarity
software can reduce provisioning time by up to 95 percent vs.
manual operation.
