      Eco Computing Node with AMD C32 Solution



      Support Latest AMD 4100 CPU

      • Based on up-to-date AMD C32 platform to support 6/4 core AMD OpteronTM 4100 series processors
      • Two HT3 up to 25.6GB/s at 6.4GT/s per link, delivering outstanding performance-per-watt and saving up to 12%~22% power consumption compared to previous Opteron 2400 series processor (from www.amd.com).


      High Memory Scalability

      • RS500A-X6/PS4 has 12 DIMM modules to support DDR3 1333 memory up to 128GB (R-DIMM), enabling fast processing speed for the AMD C32 platform solution.


      Ample Storage Capacity & Reliable Data Protection

      • Built-in 4 HDD bays in the 1U chassis supports up to 4 hot-swap HDDs
      • Meet the demand of users on storage capacity with excellent thermal design and full use of inner space
      • For better data protection, the server has PIKE slot for the use of versatile PIKE cards


      Ideal Placement for Better Thermal Solution

      • Optimal front “Parallel-Balance” design for CPU and DIMM modules delivers excellent thermal solution
      • Support 2 expansion slots and 1 PIKE slot for SAS RAID card, providing high expandability in the 1U chassis


      ASUS PIKE SAS2 6G Storage Supported

      • Optional PIKE provides on-demand and cost-effective upgradable I/O expansion solution with up-to-date SAS2 6G technology even in 1U chassis
      • PIKE slot is located at the edge of the board, therefore the RS500A-X6/PS4 can support two FH/HL cards, allowing flexible choices for multiple storage option


      80+ (Gold) Power Supply

      • Built with an 80+ 500W single power supply, which means high transit efficiency between DC & AC and less power loss, saving more power bills for customers


      Optional ASMB4-iKVM for Remote Management

      • Optional BIOS-level ASMB4-iKVM upgrade kit provides remote real-time full control access to the system by keyboard, video monitor and mouse (KVM over Ethernet) from any local computer anywhere, anytime


      Virtualization Supported

      • Virtualization provides central management through a hub and reduces power consumption and cost for cooling and space requirements
      • Optimized for virtualization by VMDq to offload CPU efforts to increase system performance and decrease latency to improve throughput
