ASRock Rack 1U8S2E-ROME/2T barebone server

1U AMD EPYC Barebone Server

The ASRock Rack 1U8S2E-ROME/2T is a 1U rackmount barebone designed for general-purpose server workloads. It arrives with a single SP3 socket ready for AMD EPYC 7002 or 7003 series processors, including 3D V-Cache models with a BIOS update. No CPU or memory is installed, so integrators supply their own components. Redundant 750W power supplies are included.

Suits single-socket builds with dense storage

This platform fits builders who need up to ten hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays — two supporting NVMe and eight SATA — plus an M.2 slot for boot or cache. Dual 10GbE ports and a full-height PCIe 4.0 x16 slot handle networking and expansion. Buyers requiring dual-socket performance, GPU compute density, or 3.5-inch drive support should evaluate other form factors.

SP3 socket defines CPU choice

The single LGA4094 socket accepts only AMD EPYC 7002 and 7003 series processors listed in the vendor compatibility table. Selecting a supported CPU determines core count, clock speed and thermal envelope for the deployment. Memory capacity scales through eight DDR4 RDIMM, LRDIMM or 3DS slots up to 256GB per DIMM.
