ST Series is a Flexible and Well-Made Server Series
Rating: 10 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Lenovo ThinkSystem ST Series is a series of really good servers.
We resell it for business across 10 to 50 members.
We use it as Hyperv Server for the whole customers organization.
It stores data securely thanks to a large disposition of disk slots and a good raid controller.
It store lots of VM's thanks to a lot of ram slots and the double processor [that makes] slots usable.
One bad thing is that you will need support for the installation for it that happens frequently. There is a part that needs to be changed within the warranty or the firmware needs to be reviewed. The good thing is the support of Lenovo is quick and at a very high level.
Pros
- Materials are top quality.
- Support is [a] high-level quality.
- [It is] very durable.
- [The] design looks good.
- [The] internal design is very accurate and professional.
- It's easy to change parts as needed.
Cons
- You need to read the fine [print of] the support guides [as] it is not so easy to set up the server without them.
Likelihood to Recommend
Lenovo ThinkSystem ST Series is a tower server series, so [you don't need] to stock [several] servers or make clusters just for the space they need. In this case, [it] is better to evaluate the SR series. For small business customers, it is perfect; it is a very silent server and is very upgradable, so the small business can grow with it.
