Fewer features is not necessarily a negative as it leads to simpler operation and lower price.
Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is easy to troubleshoot and install, with reliable performance, particularly in block storage, supported by dual controllers. It offers cost-effective SSD solutions, with stable storage for virtualization. While praised for reliability, parts replacement in Kenya is slow. Despite current suitability, scalability is limited, lacking hyper-converged support, and connection enhancements are needed. Integration with backup software like Commvault can be improved for better performance.
