ThinkSystem M.2 ER3 480GB SATA SSD
This Lenovo ThinkSystem M.2 ER3 drive provides 480GB of read-intensive storage over a SATA 6Gb interface in an NHS form factor. It is designed as a server accessory for boot or caching workloads that favour read performance. The component arrives in new condition under part number 4XB7A90049.
Suited for read-heavy server roles
