Overview
The Lenovo 01GT770 is a refurbished Intel S4500 960GB enterprise entry SSD in a 2.5-inch form factor with a SATA interface, designed for consistent performance and predictable latency in server and storage environments. It’s well suited for read-intensive roles such as OS boot, virtualisation datastores, and application volumes where reliability matters.
This drive is typically used in Lenovo platforms that accept 2.5-inch SATA SSDs, including examples such as ThinkSystem SR rack servers, ThinkSystem ST tower servers, and select System x models (depending on backplane and drive bay/caddy requirements). For broader platform sourcing and lifecycle support, see related LENOVO hardware.
In many builds, the SSD is deployed behind a compatible RAID CONTROLLER to support common RAID configurations and streamline replacement procedures. Ensure the correct mounting and hot-swap fitment using the appropriate CADDY for your chassis and backplane.
When planning capacity tiers, this 960GB SATA SSD is often paired with higher-capacity HDD media for colder data, backups, or archive workloads, while keeping latency-sensitive services on solid-state storage.
Key Features
Key technical characteristics for integrating this SSD into supported Lenovo server and storage builds:
- 960GB capacity to provide a practical balance of usable space and performance for OS, VM, and application volumes.
- 2.5-inch (SFF) drive form factor to fit common hot-swap bays used across many Lenovo ThinkSystem and System x platforms.
- SATA interface to support broad compatibility with SATA backplanes and enterprise server/storage controllers.
- Intel S4500 enterprise entry SSD class to deliver consistent performance for read-centric workloads such as boot, web, and VDI.
- Compatibility with Lenovo systems supporting 2.5-inch SATA SSDs (for example ThinkSystem SR-series, ThinkSystem ST-series, and select System x servers) to simplify maintenance and refresh projects.
- Designed for 24/7 operation to support continuous service delivery in data center and server room deployments.
- Suitable for RAID configurations (controller dependent) to help improve availability and enable predictable drive replacement workflows.
- Optimised for drop-in replacement scenarios to extend the lifecycle of existing Lenovo storage architectures without changing the interface standard.
Refurbished Quality and Warranty
This is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Refurbished SSDs are a practical way to maintain homogeneous drive populations, keep existing platforms supported, and control budget compared to buying new—while also reducing electronic waste.
Direct Hardware Supply includes a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries: three-month warranty). Extended warranty options are available on request. We are an international supplier of refurbished IT hardware and ship worldwide from Denmark.
