MSI S2205-04-10G barebone server chassis with four NVMe hybrid drive bays and two 10Gb network ports

MSI

MSI S2205-04-10G barebone server, dual Xeon, 4 NVMe hybrid bays, 2x 10Gb networking

SKU CH-BZ8N-8DRAY MPN S2205-04-10G

Barebone server supporting dual Xeon CPUs with four NVMe hybrid bays and two 10Gb network ports

  • Dual Xeon processors handle demanding compute workloads
  • Four NVMe hybrid bays provide fast storage flexibility
  • Two 10Gb networking ports deliver high-throughput connectivity
  • 2205 chassis supports cloud and edge deployments
  • Eight SATA connections expand traditional drive capacity

Dual Xeon barebone for edge workloads

This MSI S2205-04-10G barebone server supports dual 4th and 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors. It provides 4 NVMe hybrid hot-swap drive bays alongside 8 SATA connections. Dual 10Gb networking ports are integrated for high-throughput data movement.

Check processor and memory compatibility

Verify that your chosen Xeon Scalable processors match the supported generations listed for this platform. Confirm the memory type, speed and maximum capacity required by those CPUs before ordering modules. Ensure your storage mix fits the 4 NVMe hybrid bays and 8 SATA ports available.

Suits dense inference and telecom edge deployments

This chassis targets cloud services, CDN nodes, NFV, 5G core and AI inference at the edge. Buyers needing more than 4 NVMe hybrid bays or different networking speeds should evaluate alternative platforms. Teams without dual-socket Xeon requirements will find simpler systems elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the MSI S2205-04-10G barebone include CPUs, memory or drives, or must they be purchased separately?

The unit is a barebone server. Dual Xeon processors, memory modules and storage drives are not included and must be sourced separately.

Which drive bay configuration should I choose for the 4 NVMe hybrid bays that also support 8 SATA drives?

The four hot-swap bays accept NVMe or SATA drives in any mix. Select NVMe for maximum throughput or SATA for higher capacity per euro.

What does the 10Gb networking figure mean for actual throughput in a dual Xeon server?

Two 10Gb network ports provide up to 10 gigabits per second each, enabling fast data movement between nodes or to storage clusters.
