The SR850 V2, Up Close
Front — 4-Socket Density in 2U
Up to 24× 2.5" SFF SAS/SATA/NVMe bays in a 2U chassis with four CPU sockets. This is the densest Lenovo platform short of the 8S SR950 — ideal for in-memory databases and heavy consolidation workloads.
Rear — Enterprise-Grade Expansion
Up to 13× PCIe Gen4 slots, OCP 3.0 mezzanine, 4× hot-plug PSUs up to 2400W each, and XClarity Controller Enterprise. The SR850 V2's rear I/O density matches its CPU count — this is a datacenter consolidation machine.

The SR850 V2 is one of the most powerful 2U platforms on the refurbished market — 4 sockets, 48 DIMM slots, and 13 PCIe Gen4 slots in a standard-depth chassis. Lenovo has officially withdrawn the V2 (replaced by V3 with 5th Gen Xeon), so refurbished supply comes from enterprise decommissioning only. HKCHL sources globally for this platform — if you need 4S density in 2U, we are one of the few APAC refurbishers actively tracking these units. For standard 2S 2U alternatives, see the SR650 V2.

Sourcing Inquiry
On Request
We track SR850 V2 availability across APAC, EU, and US enterprise decommissioning channels. Tell us your spec and we run a global search — typical sourcing cycle 5–10 working days.
Configured System
On Request
Built to your spec from sourced chassis + CPU + RAM inventory. Lead time depends on current channel availability.

If 2-socket density is sufficient, the SR650 V2 (2S, 32 DIMM, 2U) is available in volume at significantly lower cost.
Sources: quoted against global refurbisher channels. No public completed listings found (August 2026). SR850 V2 has been withdrawn by Lenovo; supply is enterprise decommissioning only.

Quality Process
What We Test Before an SR850 V2 Ships
XCC Event & Health Logs
Full XClarity Controller log review — 4-socket platforms have more failure points; every CPU, PSU, and fan channel verified.
Full Memory Diagnostics
All 48 DIMM slots tested. 4-socket memory topology is complex — we verify every channel populates and runs at rated 3200 MT/s.
4S Interconnect Validation
UPI links between all four sockets verified at full bandwidth. A single bad UPI link can cripple cross-socket memory access on 4S platforms.
Firmware & XCC Currency
XCC, UEFI, backplane, and all four CPU microcode versions updated.
Physical Inspection
4-socket board, 13 PCIe risers, 4 PSU cage — every connector inspected. 4S platforms are heavy; chassis and rail kit condition checked.
Report in the Box
Every unit ships with its per-machine diagnostic report and warranty. Full process: inspection guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a refurbished Lenovo SR850 V2 cost?
No public completed listings exist — this platform trades via private channel. HKCHL sources globally and quotes against confirmed availability. For budget planning, expect a significant premium over 2-socket equivalents due to 4S density and limited refurbished supply.
Why is the SR850 V2 so hard to find refurbished?
Lenovo has withdrawn the V2 (replaced by V3). Enterprises that deploy 4-socket servers tend to run them longer and decommission fewer units. Combined with the smaller market for 4S platforms, refurbished supply is thin worldwide.
Should I buy an SR850 V2 or two SR650 V2s?
Depends on your workload. Two SR650 V2s give you 4 sockets total with 64 DIMM slots and separate chassis for HA — but you pay for two sets of networking and management. The SR850 V2 gives you 4 sockets in one chassis with 48 DIMM slots and unified management. For in-memory databases and SAP HANA-style workloads, the single-chassis 4S is worth it.
How does HKCHL source hard-to-find platforms like the SR850 V2?
We maintain relationships with enterprise decommissioning partners across APAC, EU, and North America. When a buyer requests a rare platform, we run a global search — not just checking public listings, but reaching into private channel inventory that never hits eBay.
What warranty comes with an SR850 V2?
Every SR850 V2 ships with documented per-unit diagnostics and 1-year warranty. 4-socket platforms get extended burn-in testing before shipment.
