Server motherboard for Xeon E and Core processors

The Supermicro MBD-X11SCA-F-O is an ATX server motherboard built around the Intel C246 chipset and LGA 1151 socket. It accepts Intel Xeon E-2100 and E-2200 series processors alongside 8th and 9th Generation Core i9, i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs up to 95W TDP. The board targets workstation and entry-server builds that need ECC memory support and dual gigabit LAN in a standard form factor.

128GB DDR4 across four UDIMM slots

Memory capacity tops out at 128GB of unbuffered ECC or non-ECC DDR4-2666MHz installed in four 288-pin UDIMM slots. The board runs DDR4 at 2666, 2400, 2133, 1866 or 1600MHz. Builders who need more storage bandwidth than eight SATA 6.0Gb/s ports provide, or who require registered DIMM support, should look elsewhere.

Dual gigabit LAN and Aspeed BMC under load

Sustained operation is managed by dual Intel I210-AT and I219-LM controllers delivering 2 x 1Gbps throughput, while the Aspeed AST2500 BMC handles remote monitoring independent of the host CPU. The two PCI-E x16 slots operate at x16/x0 or x8/x8, with one PCI-E 3.0 x4 and one PCI-E 3.0 x1 slot available for add-in cards. Eight SATA ports support RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 for redundant storage arrays.

Questions about this item

What does the 128 GB maximum memory mean when the board is populated?

You can install up to 128 GB of unbuffered ECC or non-ECC DDR4-2666 UDIMM across the four 288-pin slots.

How does the Intel C246 chipset limit the SATA ports in practice?

The C246 provides eight SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports with RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 support.

What clearance and power connectors does the ATX form factor require in the chassis?

The board follows ATX dimensions and needs standard 24-pin ATX plus 8-pin EPS power connectors.
