Lenovo launches ThinkServers aimed at Indian SMEs

Lenovo,  launched ThinkServer brand in India with two models –  ThinkServer TS140, an entry-level Tower server, and ThinkServer RD450-an entry level 2U rack server. This is the first addition from the ThinkServer portfolio to the EBG server range for Lenovo in India, post their acquisition of IBM’s x86 business in 2014. With ThinkServer, Lenovo aims to add to the robust portfolio across the entire server spectrum, right from entry-level to high-end servers. Staying true to Lenovo’s legendary Think engineering, both TS140 and RD450 will offer small businesses and entrepreneurs a perfect launch pad for their first server purchase.

ThinkServer TS140 is engineered to enable 24x7 running time. Additionally, the advanced thermal design also reduces overall system noise to super-quiet levels of close to 26 decibels. The TS140 also supports enterprise grade hard disk drives that have 3x higher MTBFs and can handle up to 10 times the workload as compared to entry-level servers that come with consumer-grade hard drives. The off-the-shelf TS140 configuration from Lenovo is powered with built in RAID 5 capability that offers customers greater peace of mind by ensuring higher availability and reliability.

The ThinkServer RD450 strikes the perfect balance between high reliability, powerful software solutions and versatile storage capacity. The RD450 comes with next gen mainstream CPUs up to 105W offering 267% more memory capacity, improved systems management capabilities and range of Platinum/Titanium PSUs. Users can benefit from increased performance, faster IO for business applications and highly efficient flexible design aimed at reducing power consumption and cost. In typical Think style, the RD450 is purposefully designed to grow one’s business and keep costs low, while also offering remote management capabilities for increased reliability and uptime.
