ASRock EPC621D4I-2M Board
The ASRock Rack EPC621D4I-2M stands out as a robust mini-ITX motherboard, meticulously engineered to deliver exceptional performance within a compact form factor. Ideal for server environments, it blends advanced features with reliability for demanding applications.
Processor Support
Engineered to support Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 and v4 processors, this motherboard is designed for high-throughput computing tasks. These processors deliver significant multi-core performance and advanced features such as Intel Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost, which are essential for running large-scale virtualisation, complex data analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.
Memory Specifications
Supporting quad-channel DIMM ECC (64GB/4x16GB Max), this board is optimised for network caching, buffering, and handling multiple concurrent connections. This configuration supports effective network processing without the need for excessively large memory banks. It has SO-DIMM support, which contributes to better airflow and thermal management, essential for maintaining optimal operating conditions in high-density configurations.
Storage and Expansion
The motherboard includes two SATA3 6 Gb/s connectors for traditional storage solutions, providing essential bandwidth for enterprise-class hard drives and SSDs. Additionally, the M.2 slot supports NVMe SSDs, which offer significantly faster read/write speeds compared to SATA-based storage. This drive capability is crucial for applications requiring rapid data access and large-scale data warehousing.
Networking Capability
The ASRock Rack EPC621D4I-2M features dual Intel i210AT Gigabit Ethernet ports, providing enhanced network reliability and performance. These ports enable network redundancy and failover to ensure continuous connectivity, while also supporting load balancing to optimise data throughput. The Intel i210AT controller offers advanced capabilities such as VLAN tagging and network offloading, which improve efficiency and reduce CPU load. This dual-port setup is ideal for high-traffic environments, delivering robust, high-speed network performance within the compact mini-ITX form factor.
