Unparalleled Usability

The ThinkStation P500 offers the ultimate in usability. It features integrated handles for easy access, as well as a modular design supporting Flex features. Flex features let you configure only the components you need. No need to pay for what you don't want. The P500 is the perfect system for whatever you do.

Flex Bays are an important component of the Flex features solution. Mix and match components easily. Choose an HDD, ultraslim ODD, 29-in-1 media card reader, and Firewire all within a Flex module. All in a single bay. Intel® Thunderbolt™ 2 technology add-in cards allow for lightning fast data transfer.

Intuitive red touch points guide you to quick and easy component changes – even to the motherboard – without a single tool.

Unmatched Performance

Increase functionality and maximize storage – up to 11 drives – with redesigned single trays and our innovative Flex Connector (another Flex feature) supports SATA/SAS/PCIe and advanced RAID solutions.

The latest Intel® Xeon® processors and NVIDIA® Quadro® graphics cards deliver unparalleled power to run all of your essential ISV applications. The ThinkStation P500 is up to 51% faster than its predecessor, the ThinkStation S30.

 

Superior Reliability

A revolutionary tri-channel design and unique air baffle maximize airflow, keeping components running cool, quiet, and strong, using fewer fans.

Interchangeable Power Supplies

With flexible power configurations, pay for only what you need. Best-of-breed cable management means no wires or plugs – and higher reliability and serviceability.
