ALTRAD8UD-1L2T/M128-26 ASRock deep micro ATX Single LGA 4926 8 DIMM Slots Server Mainboard

High-Density deep microATX ARM Server Motherboard platform with the ALTRAD8UD-1L2T/M128-26

The ALTRAD8UD-1L2T/M128-26 is a deep microATX server motherboard engineered around the single-socket Ampere Altra Max (ARM, LGA4926) platform to deliver predictable scale-out performance with lower per-node complexity. Its design targets cloud-native compute and infrastructure services where core density, power efficiency, and deterministic latency are prioritized over multi-socket coupling.

For memory-intensive control-plane and microservice tiers, the ALTRAD8UD-1L2T/M128-26 provides 8x DDR4 DIMM slots at 3200 MT/s, supporting up to 256GB, enabling balanced bandwidth per core for containerized workloads. PCIe 4.0 expansion is aligned to modern I/O-heavy architectures, with 4x x16 physical slots (x16 electrical) to sustain high-throughput NICs, DPUs, or accelerator-class adapters without lane contention. Storage is optimized for NVMe-centric designs via 4x SlimSAS plus 2x M.2 (M-Key 2230/2280) NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4, enabling scalable boot, cache, and local data tiers. Integrated networking on the ALTRAD8UD-1L2T/M128-26 combines 2x 10GbE (Intel X550) with 1x 1GbE (Intel I210) for flexible in-band and service-plane connectivity.
