Product Features
Technical Overview
This barebone system delivers a balanced technical profile focused on expandability and reliable operation. The memory architecture features eight DDR4 slots supporting up to 512GB of DDR4-2133/PC4-17000 memory, providing substantial capacity for virtualization, database applications, and compute-intensive tasks.
Storage flexibility is a key strength, with five total expansion bays including one 5.25" bay and four 3.5" bays, all managed by a Serial ATA/600 controller with RAID support. For additional functionality, three PCIe expansion slots (one x8 and two x16) allow for network, storage, or GPU add-in cards.
