The Lenovo ThinkSystem SR665 is a feature-rich, 2nd generation AMD EPYC dual-socket 2U server, supporting end-to-end PCIe Gen4 support. Similar to its smaller 1U sibling the SR635, it also supports a wide range of storage configuration options, including Gen4 U.2 NVMe SSDs. Being an AMD EPYC server comes with several advantages including typically higher performance, faster RAM, more DIMMs, and PCIe Gen4 support. This server is ideal for Inference, virtualization, VDI, HPC, and Hyperconverged infrastructure.
This ThinkSystem can leverage both PCIe Gen3 and Gen4 devices. This means that users looking to deploy a SR665 in their environments may use one or the other. In order to give a better overall view of how the server works, we put both types of storage in and tested it. To be clear, this isn’t a “which one is better” type of test. While the Gen4 storage isn’t quite saturated with offerings just yet, it is typically faster than Gen3 in nearly every case. So Gen4 will be faster in most instances. However, with both drives tested, users will know what to expect with what type of storage they choose to leverage, e.g., if they are using Gen3 now they will know what to expect and if they change to Gen4 in the future they will know what the results should be.
Overall, Lenovo ThinkSystem SR665 is a highly configurable 2U server that can really bring out the performance capabilities with the AMD EPYC CPUs. Whether users are packing it with PCIe Gen3 or Gen4, they will be impressed with its capabilities.
