Product overview
The Lenovo 128GB PCIe Gen3 NVMe M.2 2242 SSD is supplied under part number 00UP686. Form factor and connector decide whether a drive physically lands in the bay; this is a M.2 unit, and an adapter that fits mechanically can still cost you hot-swap. Give us the chassis and we will check the carrier as well as the drive.
Tell us the deadline you are working to and we will say whether it is achievable before you commit to it internally.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against 00UP686 specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Carrier and firmware confirmed
The drive, the caddy it needs and the firmware family the controller expects are all checked as one order.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is 00UP686 genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. It ships new in Lenovo packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
- Will 00UP686 work in my server?
- Send the server or array model and the controller behind it. We check the carrier, the firmware family and whether the drive is on the platform's supported list — mechanical fit is the easy part.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes — POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.

Training throughput is limited by how fast data reaches the accelerators, which is why AI nodes are specified with NVMe in front of the GPUs.
