R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte

High-Density 2U Dual-Socket Storage-Oriented Rack Server Barebone with PCIe Gen5 using the R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte

The R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte is a 2U dual-socket Intel Xeon 6 platform engineered for storage-first architectures that still require high core density and wide PCIe Gen5 connectivity. Built for Granite Rapids Xeon 6900 with P-cores (up to 500W TDP per CPU), it targets I/O-heavy consolidation where CPU throughput, memory bandwidth, and expansion lanes must scale together; single-CPU deployments may reduce available PCIe and memory functions.

For memory-intensive services, the R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte integrates 24 DDR5 ECC RDIMM/MRDIMM slots to sustain large footprints and predictable reliability for virtualisation and software-defined storage control planes. The storage topology is designed for tiering: 14 hot-swap bays (12 front, 2 rear) with hybrid backplane support, where selected bays can operate as NVMe/SAS/SATA and remaining bays support SAS/SATA via the appropriate storage controller. Additional OS and cache separation is enabled through 3 M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen5 slots. Expansion is optimised for modern fabrics and adapters with 7 PCIe 5.0 x16 slots plus dual OCP NIC 3.0 SFF PCIe 5.0 x16, complemented by out-of-band management through an AST2600 BMC with IPMI and HTML5 KVM.

Why Choose the R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte?

The R284-A94-AAL1 Gigabyte delivers a practical density-to-performance ratio for enterprise storage nodes by combining dual-socket compute, high DDR5 capacity, and PCIe Gen5 lane availability for HBAs, RAID/VROC, and high-speed NICs. Its hybrid bay design supports phased adoption of NVMe while retaining cost-efficient SAS/SATA tiers, enabling scalable deployment across private cloud clusters and edge aggregation racks.

Gigabyte designs the R Series around serviceability, remote lifecycle control, and compliance with modern data centre power and management expectations, enabling repeatable integration into standard 2U rack workflows with redundant power and robust platform monitoring.

Key Applications:

Software-defined storage
Hybrid NVMe and SAS/SATA tiered storage
Virtualisation and private cloud consolidation
High-I/O database and analytics
