RS700A-E9-RS12V2 fits up to 12 2.5-inch storage drives in a compact 1U form factor. With support for multiple drive configurations, including eight NVMe and four SATA drives, four NVMe and eight SATA drives, or four NVME and eight SAS drives with an optional ASUS PIKE II card, RS700A-E9-RS12V2 provides storage flexibility for a wide range of applications.

RS700A-E9-RS12V2 provides numerous expansion slots to support additional storage and networking configurations, including a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot for a 4-NVMe adapter card, two PCIe 3.0 x8 slots for ASUS PIKE II HBA/RAID and 2-NVMe adapter cards, and an OCP Mezzanine x16 slot for a high-speed networking card.

Dual M.2 slots supports either SATA 6Gb/s or PCIe 3.0 x4 with 32Gb/s bandwidth to enable fast data transfers. The OS can be installed on an M.2 SSD, speeding up system load times and eliminating the need to use one of the 2.5-inch storage drive bays.

RS700A-E9-RS12V2 is built on the brand-new AMD EPYC™ 7002 platform to deliver incredible server performance. With up to 64 cores per CPU and up to 128 threads in a single 1U server, RS700A-E9-RS12V2 packs incredible power in minimal space. 32 DIMM slots provide best-in-class memory capacity and bandwidth, and an integrated I/O controller on the processor eliminates the data transfer bottlenecks caused by discrete I/O chipsets for reduced latency and dramatically faster system performance.

RS700A-E9-RS12V2 supports up to 32 DDR4 DIMMs for up to 4TB of RAM. An integrated I/O controller on the processor eliminates the data transfer bottlenecks caused by discrete I/O chipsets for reduced latency and dramatically faster system performance.

RS700A-E9-RS12V2 features an embedded iKVM module and is bundled with ASUS Control Centre to provide comprehensive out-of-band and in-band management features for small and mid-size businesses.

The embedded ASMB9-iKVM module supports remote BIOS updates, fan control, standalone KVMs, video recording, and BSOD capture, providing around-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnostics — even if the operating system is down or offline — through a user-friendly, web-based graphical interface that works with all major browsers.

ASUS Control Centre (ACC) is a centralised and integrated IT management platform for monitoring and controlling ASUS commercial products, including servers, workstations and digital signage. ACC enables remote BIOS updates, monitoring of multiple systems via mobile devices, and one-click software updates and dispatching, allowing easier server management for any IT infrastructure.

Featuring two innovative intelligent detection technologies and multi-fan zone design, ASUS Thermal Radar 2.0 places different sensors on the CPU, GPU, DIMM, HDD and in other areas to collect localised heating information to designate dedicated fan flow automatically to reduce consumption of overall fan capacity. Additionally, the multi-fan zone design enables multiple fan curves for different zones to reduce operating time and cost required for manual adjustments and effectively enhances system reliability and thermal efficiency.
