Description

Lenovo 7450 PRO 15.36 TB Solid State Drive — 2.5" Internal U.3 PCIe 4.0 x4 Read Intensive

The Lenovo 7450 PRO 15.36 TB NVMe SSD is built to deliver exceptional performance and enduring reliability for data-centric environments. Engineered as a general‑purpose yet high‑performance Read Intensive drive, it combines a massive 15.36 TB capacity with the speed of PCIe 4.0 NVMe and the versatility of a 2.5" U.3 form factor. This storage solution is designed to handle broad workloads—from data caching and virtualization to big-data analytics and archival storage—while keeping costs favorable for enterprise deployments. With Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) encryption included as standard, the 7450 PRO helps protect data at rest and supports compliance requirements without adding complexity to your security stack. Whether deployed in ThinkSystem servers, storage arrays, or other enterprise platforms that support U.3 NVMe drives, this SSD is optimized for sustained read workloads and reliable, scalable performance.

  • Massive capacity in a single drive: 15.36 TB of solid-state storage for large datasets, databases, and scalable caches.
  • PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface delivers fast read throughput to accelerate data-intensive tasks and reduce bottlenecks in demanding environments.
  • 2.5" U.3 internal form factor enables flexible integration into a wide range of servers, backplanes, and storage arrays that support enterprise NVMe drives.
  • Read Intensive workload design optimized for read-heavy operations, providing reliable performance for data-tiering, streaming, and caching workloads.
  • Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) encryption standard, delivering data-at-rest protection that simplifies security and regulatory compliance without extra software.

how to install Lenovo 7450 PRO 15.36 TB NVMe SSD

  • Verify system compatibility: ensure your server or storage array supports a 2.5" U.3 NVMe drive and PCIe 4.0 x4 interfaces.
  • Power down and prepare: shut down the system, unplug power, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge.
  • Access the drive bay or backplane: remove the drive cage or slot cover as required by your chassis.
  • Insert the drive: align the 2.5" U.3 connector and seating edge, then gently slide the Lenovo 7450 PRO into the slot until seated firmly.
  • Secure and connect: fasten the drive with screws or secure the backplane mechanism, and ensure the NVMe/PCIe connectors are fully engaged.
  • Power up and initialize: boot the system, enter the operating system’s disk management tools, and initialize the new drive if prompted. Create and format volumes as needed for your workloads.
  • Enable security policies (optional): if you plan to use SED features, configure encryption policies through your management software or BIOS/UEFI settings as appropriate for your environment.
