ASUS PIKE II
& 12G SAS Integration
ASUS PIKE II offers the latest
12Gb/s SAS together with PCI-E 3.0 solution. While ASUS latest 12Gb/s SAS doubles
the data rate running at twice the speed of the previous generation, PCI-E 3.0
offers high reliability and faster speed connection. ASUS PIKE II meets user
needs with support for 6Gb/s SATA and 12Gb/s SAS storage and integrated RAID
data protection. Just placing the PIKE II card can immediately enlarge the
capacity, improve the performance, and strengthen the signaling, making it the
great upgrade option. Additionally, multiple HBAs allow multi-paths which
improve over performance.
2+1 expansion
RS500-E8-RS4 V2 has high expandability with 2+1 expansion slots in a
configuration: that means one PCI-E Gen3x 16 slot, one PCI-E Gen3x 8 slot, plus
one PCI-E Gen3x 8 slot OCP Mezzanine card. This flexible expansion offers
diverse applications in storage and networking to meeting the demands of future
expansion.
Premium components for premium
efficiency
RS500-E8-RS4 V2 benefits from premium components hand-chosen and carefully
arranged by ASUS engineers to provide premium efficiency. With ASUS Beat
Thermal Chokes, Dr. MOS and 1+1 Redundant 770W 80PLUS Platinum Power Supply, it
delivers great durability and up to 94% power efficiency. The 1+1 Redundant
770W 80PLUS Platinum Power Supply design allows the server to keep working even if
one power supply requires maintenance, enabling uninterrupted operation.
RS500-E8-RS4 V2 has durable 12k solid capacitors that are able to withstand up
to 12,000 hours of high ambient temperatures. These 12K capacitors also boast
lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) for increased efficiency and minimal heat
generation.
Instant Deployment
RS500-E8-RS4 V2 includes a front-side VGA port, so you’re able to connect a
display quickly and easily. RS500-E8-RS4 V2 also benefits from an exclusive
tool-less rail kit design, easing deployment for systems administrators for
increased efficiency.
The server also carries an asset tag for fast identification. RS500-E8-RS4 V2 also
offers great freedom when it comes to the choice of operating system drive type
and placement, with both M.2 slot for independent OS available.
Easy Diagnostic and Management
RS500-E8-RS4 V2 has a built-in Q-Code/port 80 LED display LED for simple
monitoring of the entire boot process, from the early hardware-awakening stages
to the launch of the operating system and beyond. A bright CPU and Memory LED
on board lets you check the server’s status instantly. With the Intelligent
Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0-compliant ASMB8-iKVM module in
RS500-E8-RS4 V2, you’ll be able to monitor, control and manage the server
remotely.
