Lenovo ThinkSystem 1U 4x2.5" SAS/SATA Backplane Kit

Add the drive backplane your 1U platform needs to support four 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drives in a compact, serviceable layout. This Lenovo ThinkSystem option kit is built for compatible 1U systems, giving infrastructure teams a direct path to expand internal storage without changing the server footprint. For environments where rack density, airflow, and maintenance access matter, a purpose-fit backplane is more than a component swap. It defines how drives connect, how service is performed, and how consistently the chassis behaves under load. This kit is intended for Lenovo ThinkSystem 1U systems designed for 4 x 2.5-inch drive configurations, making it a practical choice when you need to preserve platform compatibility and avoid improvised hardware mixes. Use it when standardizing replacement parts, completing a build, or restoring a server to its intended storage layout. In enterprise deployments, the right backplane helps keep the system aligned with the original platform design, which reduces integration risk and supports cleaner lifecycle management.
