Lenovo System x3750 M4 (8753)

Product Guide

The Lenovo System x3750 M4 (machine type 8753) is a 4-socket server featuring a streamlined design,

optimized for price and performance, with best-in-class flexibility and expandability. Models of the x3750

M4, machine type 8753, are powered with Intel Xeon E5-4600 v2 processors, up to 12 cores each, for an

entry-level 4-socket solution. The x3750 M4 provides maximum storage density, with flexible PCI and 10

Gb Ethernet networking options in a 2U form factor.

Withdrawn from marketing: The models covered in this product guide are now withdrawn from

marketing. The replacement system is the ThinkSystem SR850 which is described in

https://lenovopress.com/LP0645

.

Suggested uses: High performance computing (HPC), workloads with floating-point computations, and

small to medium databases requiring fast I/O; applications that require 4-socket performance without

needing the scalability that the X6 systems provide.

Figure 1. The Lenovo System x3750 M4

Did you know?

With a dense 2U design, the Lenovo System x3750 M4 provides advanced features and capabilities. These

include support for up to four sockets and 48 DIMMs, mix and match internal storage, up to 16 HDDs or 32

eXFlash solid-state drives (SSDs), six hot-swap, dual-rotor fans and two power supplies.

A Mezzanine LOM socket provides a choice of 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) or 10 GbE networking options.

Predictive Failure Analysis and light path diagnostics proactively monitor the system’s sub-components

and provide advanced warning on power supplies, fans, drives, processors and memory.
