Lenovo Thinkserver TS100 Reviews

Consumer review by: Edlee (newegg.com)

Awesome sandy bridge server with quick sync

You need to do 'trick install' to get HD graphics p3000 hw acceleration in server 08 r2. I am very happy with speed of this machine, i was originally concerned about power consumption, but then I noticed it was a very efficient power supply, 80 plus...

This machine makes an awesome DLNA server with realtime video transcoding through intel quicksync ; Fast quad core machine ; Cheap price if purchased from neweggbusiness site instead of newegg

Only 2 hard drive bays ; No hot plug hard drive option

Great Entry Level Server

Although I have more cons, they aren't anything that deter me from recommending this small business server. If you need something that needs 3+ hard drives, I'd find something else or get an external RAID array.

I was originally planning on buying a HP Proliant ML110 G7 server, but after reading reviews about the new Lenovo TS130, I decided to buy this for a client. The construction is top notch and is extremely quiet. All in all, Lenovo makes a great product
