Description
The ASUS RS500A-E10-RS12U (SKU: RS500A-E10-RS12U) is a high-density 1U rack server designed for data center, virtualization, and software-defined storage environments. It uses a single-socket AMD EPYC architecture and focuses on high NVMe storage density with efficient compute performance.
This platform supports a single AMD EPYC 7002/7003 series processor using Socket SP3. As a result, it delivers strong multi-core performance for virtualization and storage workloads. In addition, it includes 16 DDR4 DIMM slots. It supports LRDIMM memory up to 2TB with speeds up to 3200 MT/s. Therefore, it enables scalable memory capacity for enterprise deployments.
The server features 12× 2.5″ drive bays with support for SATA and NVMe drives. It uses an integrated storage controller with SATA 6Gb/s and PCIe Gen4 x4 connectivity. As a result, it provides high-throughput, low-latency storage performance. In addition, it includes 2× internal M.2 connectors for OS or boot drives.
For networking, the system integrates an Intel I350-AM2 dual-port 1GbE RJ45 controller. It also supports OCP 2.0 network cards. Therefore, it enables flexible network expansion for different infrastructure requirements.
The platform supports PCIe 4.0 expansion with 1× PCIe Gen4 x16 (FH,HL) and 1× PCIe Gen4 x8 (FH,HL) slots. As a result, it allows installation of additional NICs, storage controllers, or accelerators.
For reliability, the server includes dual redundant power supplies. It also features a dedicated RJ45 management port for remote monitoring and control. Therefore, it ensures high availability and simplified system management.
This system is fully tested and ready for reuse. It fits enterprise environments that require cost-effective compute with high NVMe storage density. It works well for virtualization, hyper-converged infrastructure, and data-intensive applications.
