Unlock the full potential of your Lenovo ThinkSystem SR645 with the Rear 2x7mm NVMe RAID Enablement Kit. This essential upgrade is designed for data centers and enterprises that demand exceptionally fast NVMe storage, precise data protection, and streamlined deployment in the SR645 family. By adding two rear 7mm NVMe drive bays and a robust RAID-ready path, this kit delivers higher I/O throughput, lower latency, and greater storage density without sacrificing reliability. Built for performance-driven workloads such as large-scale databases, virtualization, analytics, and media rendering, the kit integrates seamlessly with Lenovo’s renowned ThinkSystem ecosystem to deliver a scalable, future-proof storage upgrade.

  • Dual 7mm NVMe drive bays for high-density storage expansion: The kit enables two rear NVMe drives in the SR645 chassis, unlocking substantial capacity and improved data access speeds. This configuration is ideal for rapid data caching, scratch storage, and high-velocity data pipelines, dramatically enhancing overall system performance in mixed workload environments.
  • RAID enablement designed for Lenovo ThinkSystem reliability: Built to work in concert with the server’s native RAID controller, the kit provides firmware- and hardware-optimized pathways for protected storage. You can configure resilient RAID volumes to balance performance, redundancy, and capacity — all while benefiting from Lenovo’s enterprise-grade reliability and support.
  • Effortless integration with minimal chassis disruption: The enclosure and backplane components are purpose-built for seamless fitting into the SR645 rear area. With included mounting hardware, cables, and the installation guide, administrators can deploy the kit quickly during maintenance windows or planned upgrades without long downtime.
  • Optimized cooling and airflow for sustained performance: The compact, purpose-built design maintains optimal cooling in dense server configurations. By preserving proper airflow around rear NVMe drives, the kit minimizes thermal throttling and supports consistent throughput during intensive workloads that demand persistent IOPS and low latency.
  • Enhanced storage throughput and latency reduction for mission-critical workloads: By providing direct NVMe paths and optimized routing to the server’s PCIe fabric, the kit minimizes bottlenecks and reduces latency. This results in faster database queries, smoother virtualization, and quicker access to high-speed data for workflow-critical applications.

How to install Lenovo ThinkSystem SR645 Rear 2x7mm NVMe RAID Enablement Kit

  • Power down the ThinkSystem SR645 server, unplug power cords, and follow standard anti-static precautions before beginning any hardware changes.
  • Open the chassis and locate the rear expansion area where NVMe storage can be mounted. Remove any existing covers or components that would obstruct the new drive bays and backplane interface.
  • Align the kit’s backplane adapter with the SR645 rear space and attach the two 7mm NVMe drive bays into the designated sleds or carriers included with the kit. Ensure a secure fit and proper seating of all components.
  • Connect the included cables from the rear NVMe backplane to the server’s RAID controller header or the appropriate motherboard/ controller interface as specified in the installation guide. Route cables to avoid interference with fans and other moving parts.
  • Secure all components with the provided mounting hardware, reassemble the chassis, and reconnect power. Power on the server and enter the RAID controller BIOS or management utility during the boot sequence to detect the newly added NVMe drives.
  • Initialize the NVMe drives within the RAID management interface, create your preferred RAID volumes, and verify the array status. Install or migrate your operating system as needed and monitor drive health and performance through the server’s management tools.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.

Most comfortable pillow I’ve ever slept on
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Crescent White(cooling)
This is the most comfortable pillow I have ever slept on. It doesn't mash down like other pillows. Cradles my neck perfectly plus it’s cool. I broke my neck a couple of years ago and this pillow feels very good and comfortable. Definitely recommend to everyone. Ive used it since May and it’s retained its shape.

Smell
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
The fact that there are not more comments on the smell of these pillows has me worried about some of yall. Listen, I LOVE the weight, and the firmness, it’s perfect for that. However, these pillows are RANK. They have a very strong mildew-ish smell that lingers. I took the outer cover off and washed it and let the pillow air out for a few days, the smell is still very strong when you press your face against it, which one does because it is in fact designed for that purpose. It smells so bad. It’s nauseating. I can smell it through two pillowcases and blanket that I threw on top of them hoping an extra layer would trap the smell. I’ll bake them in the Texas sun tomorrow and hope that helps, because otherwise these are the perfect pillows for someone who wants to feel like they are hugging a torso but can’t stand the sound/feel of someone else breathing. I don’t know…4 stars, if the smell goes away I’ll come back. Update: many many days later. Either they don’t really smell anymore or I got use to it. They’ve held their firmness and shape well. I like them.

Actually Cooling Pillow
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This is a really nice pillow, I was worried it would be too soft or too firm but it's just right and it's actually cooling, it feels cool every time I touch it. I've noticed an improvement in sleep since using it. Would recommend!

Repurchased in King Size – Still Love These Cooling Pillows
Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling), Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
After using the queen-size version of these pillows for over a year, we purchased the king-size set when we upgraded to a king mattress. Both my husband and I really like them. The cooling feature works well, and we like that each side feels different—when I run cold, I use the softer bamboo side, while my husband prefers the cooler side since he tends to sleep hot. They fit well in our king-size pillowcases and feel supportive in all sleeping positions, whether I’m on my stomach, side, or back. I also appreciate that you can remove some of the filling to adjust the firmness. The covers are washable, which makes them easy to maintain. Overall, we’re very happy with this repurchase and the long-lasting comfort.
