This server utilizes SAS HDD for storage and offers RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 1+0, and 6.

Our take
This Lenovo System x3550 M5 offers a robust platform for a variety of server roles. The dual Xeon processors, combined with 32GB of DDR4 RAM and the potential for a massive 1.5TB RAM upgrade, mean it's highly scalable for future needs. I appreciate the comprehensive RAID level support (0, 1, 5, 1+0, 6), which provides flexibility for data protection. While it uses SAS HDD storage, it's important to note that actual drives are not specified as included, so that's an additional purchase to factor in. Connectivity is solid, though only USB 2.0 is listed.
