The Supermicro SuperServer 2029U-E1CRT can be loaded with up to 24x DDR4 memory modules and can support up to 6TB of memory. It also supports a variety of storage options, supporting 24x SATA or SAS hot-swap drive bays. Unlike the other models in the same series, the network connection supports 2x 10GBase-T LAN ports. Increased bandwidth provides faster processing of essential applications.
Intel’s C621 chipset supports 8x integrated SATA ports, as well as 6x S-SATA ports that are supported by the integrated Intel SAS Control Unit (SCU). With up to 28 cores, you can create more virtual machines. Both Gen 1 and 2 are supported, with Gen 1 running at memory speeds of up to 2666MT/s, and Gen 2 processors running at a top speed of 2933MT/s. The Intel Xeon 8100/6100/5100/4100/3100 processor series comes in two models: Fabric (F Model) and Non-Fabric (Non-F Model), but only the Non-Fabric model is supported for this system. Powering the system are two 1000W PSUs supporting redundancy, such that one will continue to operate if the other module fails. These modules are hot-swappable and are also have auto-switching capabilities. This feature enables them to automatically sense the input voltage and operate at a a standard 100-120v or 180-240v.
A maximum of 6TB of memory is supported in 24x DIMM slots on the system, with 6 memory channels per processor, there are 12x memory channels total in a two-processor configuration. Choose from 3DS Load Reduced (3DS LRDIMM), 3DS Registered (3DS RDIMM), or up to 3 TB of Load Reduced (LRDIMM) memory modules operating at speeds of up to 2933 MHz. Non-Volatile (NV-DIMM) memory modules and Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Modules (DCPMM) are also supported, depending on your choice of processor.
The Supermicro 2029U-E1CRT supports a variety of storage options. 24x SATA hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays are supported natively. You can also install up to 24x SAS drives with an add-on card. With this option, you can also use the 4x hybrid bays to support up to 4x NVMe drives. There’s also an option for 2x SATA 2.5-inch drives in the rear, and 2x internal M.2 solid state drives. *The server can be purchased with or without drives installed.
Riser cards allow you to add more functionality to the system using PCI expansion cards. The total number of expansion cards depends on the model in the 2029U-E Series, but there are 8x PCIe slots on this system. In order to have full access to the slots and onboard controllers, both CPUs must be installed. Up to 2x M.2 solid state drives can be installed on an optional ultra riser card, with some restrictions. One M.2 socket supports NVMe and the other supports SATA.
Supermicro offers several different management tools available for all models in the 2029U-E Series. SuperDoctor 5 (SD5) monitors the chassis’ health information like CPU temperature, system power consumption, and fan speed. It can be configured provides email alerts and through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Most recently, Supermicro also supports API Redfish, which is a different variation of the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI), but without the hassle. Redfish allows users to program maintenance tasks and simple configurations that have been too complex and time consuming in the past.
The Supermicro SuperServer 2029U-E1CRT provides a flexible way to grow your business. With its 24x DIMM slots and 24x SATA or SAS drive bays, this system can help make computing a breeze with all of its powerful capabilities.
