New ThinkStations Use More Than 50 per cent Recycled Content.
Lenovo (HKSE: 0992) (ADR: LNVGY) has extended its ThinkStation business workstation line by introducing the ThinkStations E20 and C20 to enterprises in Thailand. Both units score high for environmental conscious managers by using more than 50 percent recycled plastic content and also feature Lenovo’s Enhanced Experience certified PCs for Windows 7, letting you boot up and shut down at faster speeds as well as offering enhanced back-up and security features.
The ThinkStation E20 is the first in a news series of entry-level workstations offering professionals in computer-aided design (CAD) and digital content creation (DCC) the performance they need at an affordable price. The ThinkStation C20 on the other hand, is an ultra-compact number cruncher packed with power perfectly suited to heavy duty data processing tasks by packing a lot of processing power yet takes up a minimal amount of space.
“As Thailand moves towards generating a creative economy, a government initiative, these additions will be valuable for design and finance industries. The addition of the ThinkStation E20 allows CAD and DCC professionals who have previously been getting by on desktop PCs to use their specialised applications on true workstation hardware to boost performance and productivity,” said Jeerawut Wongpimonporn, Country Manager, Key Account Business Unit, Lenovo Thailand. “For users with high processing requirements, the ThinkStation C20 provides greater flexibility as the smaller size and reduced heat output allows users to do more with the space they have.”

Lenovo ThinkStation C20 — A Fit for Finance
Lenovo designed the ThinkStation C20 workstation with the number-crunching and graphics-heavy performance needed for financial markets. With a premium on space at busy trading desks, the ThinkStation C20 dwarfs the competition in size — it’s 46% smaller than the Dell Precision T550 and 31% smaller than the HP Z600 — without compromising on performance, which allows for more workstations to be installed in a rack or trader desk.
Lenovo engineered many industry ‘firsts’ to package high performance into such a compact design, which includes new Lenovo-developed technologies such as a patented slim, rotatable optical drive and a tri-channel cooling system.
The compact size of the ThinkStation C20 redefines expectations for a ‘small’ dual socket workstation, but these units are also likely to fit in with the control-room furniture already in place in your office. Whatever the office configuration, the small size and recessed handle make moving and installing the ThinkStation a simple task. However, it’s not all about looks as the ThinkStation C20 can take on the most demanding applications virtue of the Intel Xeon processors with Turbo Boost Technology that kicks in additional performance during peak processing. Graphics aren’t forgotten either with a range of NVIDIA NVS and FX series graphics as well as some ATI FireMV cards to give you the luxury of choice.
Key features of the ThinkStation C20 include:
Choice of Intel Xeon 5600 Series processors
Up to 96GB DDR3 ECC memory with 12 available DIMM slots and Native SAS support
