Constant Challenges
As organizations face continued pressure to consolidate data
center infrastructure, they also wrestle with the need to handle
more compute-intensive workloads which are analyzing more
data faster than ever before. With all these challenges to meet,
more data centers are turning to Lenovo Flex System and the
Flex System x240 M5 Compute Node.

Boost cloud performance with greater VM density and low
latency flash storage
Reduce unplanned downtime by delivering industry-leading
RAS design
Provide power savings using improved thermal and cooling
design and more efficient components
Safeguard enterprise data with built-in System x Trusted
Platform Assurance to mitigate attacks against boot firmware
and management controllers

Versatile Power
The 2-processor Flex System x240 M5 Compute Node delivers
major advances in performance, capacity, management simplicity,
and networking flexibility to help you keep operating costs down
without sacrificing efficiency, reliability or security. For workloads
that require a balance of memory, processor and I/O bandwidth,
the Flex System x240 M5 delivers the flexibility to optimize
individual resources to adapt to meet your workload’s needs.

Next-Generation

Networking Flexibility

Each Flex System x240 M5 supports up to two powerful Intel
Xeon® processors E5-2600 v4 series, available with as many
as 22 cores, each running at up to 2400MHz. The x240 M5 was
designed to deliver improved energy efficiency without sacrificing
performance. The Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 V4 family of processors
features up to 55MB L3 cache per processor, integrated PCIe
3.0, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, Hyper-Threading
Technology and two QuickPath interconnects.

To deliver the maximum choice of networking options, the
x240 M5 allows you to select and use the two included mezzanine card slots to meet your specific connectivity requirements.
You can choose from optional Gigabit Ethernet (GbE), 10GbE,
40GbE, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or iSCSI cards to network
your way.

Powerful Memory

The Flex System x240 M5 Compute Node is supported by
Lenovo XClarity, a centralized systems management solution
that helps administrators deliver infrastructure faster and with
less effort. Lenovo XClarity integrates easily with Flex System,
providing automated discovery, monitoring, firmware updates,
configuration management, and bare metal deployment of
operating systems and hypervisors across multiple systems.

Systems Management

Also, TruDDR4 Memory support requires only 1.2V of power
each, compared to 1.35V and 1.5V for previous modules.
In fact, each x240 M5 will be able to support up to 1.5TB*
of memory in 24 DIMM slots running at up to two DIMMs per
Channel, 2DPC@2400MHz. The TruDDR4 Memory portfolio
includes RDIMMs with advanced error correction for reliability,
performance and maximum memory capacity. In addition,
TruDDR4 Memory will support memory performance that
exceeds industry standards. The x240 M5 also offers versatile
high-performance storage options such as dual 2.5-inch NVMe
PCIe SSD storage and mirrored SD card for hypervisor.

Why Lenovo
Lenovo is the leading provider of x86 systems for the data center.
The portfolio includes rack, tower, blade, dense and converged
systems, and supports enterprise class performance, reliability
and security. Lenovo also offers a full range of networking,
storage, software and solutions, and comprehensive services
supporting business needs throughout the IT lifecycle.
