Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 - Refurbished 1U Rack Server
The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 is a compact, high-performance 1U rack server designed for organisations that demand enterprise-grade computing without sacrificing rack space. Built around Intel Xeon Scalable processors, it delivers a strong balance of processing power, memory capacity, and I/O flexibility within a slim, efficient chassis.
As a two-socket platform, the SR630 supports dual Xeon Scalable CPUs, enabling substantial multi-threaded performance for demanding workloads. Its memory architecture accommodates a generous number of DIMM slots, making it well-suited to memory-intensive applications such as in-memory databases, virtualisation hosts, and analytics platforms.
Despite its 1U form factor, the SR630 offers considerable storage and expansion options, including support for NVMe drives, a range of PCIe adapters, and flexible networking configurations. This makes it equally capable as a standalone workhorse or as part of a larger, scale-out infrastructure.
Refurbished SR630 units from Compuwyze are professionally tested, cleaned, and certified to meet exacting quality standards before dispatch. Use our configurator to build your ideal specification - choose your processors, memory, storage, and networking to match your workload and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How many CPUs and how much RAM can the SR630 support?
- The SR630 is a dual-socket server supporting two Intel Xeon Scalable processors. It features multiple DDR4 DIMM slots, allowing substantial total memory capacity to accommodate memory-intensive workloads. Exact maximums depend on the specific generation and configuration — our team can advise on what's available when you configure your unit.
- Does the SR630 support NVMe storage?
- Yes, the ThinkSystem SR630 supports NVMe drive configurations alongside traditional SAS and SATA options. This gives you the flexibility to choose storage that matches your performance requirements, whether you need the low latency of NVMe for transactional workloads or higher-capacity SAS/SATA drives for bulk storage.
- What RAID options are available?
- The SR630 supports a range of RAID controllers, including onboard RAID functionality and optional dedicated hardware RAID adapters. Common RAID levels such as RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10 are supported depending on the controller fitted. When configuring your server, you can specify your preferred RAID controller and we'll ensure it's installed and verified.
- Is the refurbished SR630 suitable for running virtualisation platforms?
- Absolutely. The SR630's dual-socket Xeon Scalable architecture, large memory capacity, and flexible networking make it an excellent virtualisation host. It is fully compatible with VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Proxmox VE, and other leading hypervisors. Many of our customers use refurbished SR630 units specifically for high-density VM deployments.
