3U rack chassis with ten front-access server nodes

GIGABYTE

GIGABYTE B343-C40-AAJ1 3U 10-node barebone server

SKU CH-6G66-SZTXV MPN B343-C40-AAJ1

A 3U barebone chassis holding ten independent nodes, each supporting AMD EPYC 4005 or Ryzen 9000 processors, dual-channel DDR5 memory, dual 1GbE LAN, two 2.5-inch Gen5 NVMe/SATA bays, an M.2 slot.

  • 10 independent compute nodes in a single 3U chassis
  • Dual-channel DDR5 ECC memory per node for data integrity
  • 20 hot-swap 2.5" Gen5 NVMe/SATA bays for high-density storage
  • One full-height PCIe Gen5 x16 slot per node for accelerators
  • Three OCP NIC 3.0 slots enable flexible multi-host networking

3U 10-Node Blade Server

The GIGABYTE B343-C40-AAJ1 is a 3U rackmount barebone that houses ten independent compute nodes. Each node accepts a single AMD EPYC 4005 or Ryzen 9000 series processor. The platform targets high-density workloads such as virtualisation farms, cloud infrastructure and HPC clusters.

Suited for scale-out deployments needing

This chassis suits operators who want ten self-contained servers in three rack units with direct access to drives and networking. It does not suit builds that require dual-socket nodes, larger memory capacity per node, or rear-access maintenance layouts.

Sustained load across ten nodes

Each node provides dual-channel DDR5 ECC memory, two 2.5-inch Gen5 NVMe or SATA bays, one M.2 slot with PCIe Gen3 x1 and one full-height PCIe Gen5 x16 slot. Shared OCP NIC 3.0 slots and dual 1GbE LAN via Intel I350-AM2 handle steady network throughput across the enclosure.

Questions about this item

What processors do I need to populate the ten nodes in this 3U server?

Each node accepts a single AMD EPYC 4005 or Ryzen 9000 series processor, so you need ten compatible CPUs to fill the system.

Can I install a full-height add-in card in each node alongside the shared OCP NIC modules?

Yes, every node provides one full-height half-length PCIe Gen5 x16 slot in addition to the three shared OCP NIC 3.0 slots.

How can I verify that the Gen5 NVMe drives in each node are running at full speed after installation?

Check the BIOS or operating system device manager to confirm each 2.5-inch bay reports a PCIe Gen5 x4 link for the installed NVMe SSD.
