Chenbro Launches 1U Xeon HPC Server with 4x Universal Drive Bay - the Chenbro RB13804

[btarunr]

Chenbro has launched the RB13804, a 1U rackmount server barebone designed for mission-critical, storage-focused applications for mixed deployments (Hyper-Converged Infrastructure) in Data Center and HPC Enterprise, that may either require maximum density of compute-to-storage capability or are limited by available rack space. The RB13804 is pre-integrated with an Intel Server Board S2600WFTR that supports up to two 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable 'Cascade Lake' Processors, allowing cost and build flexibility in deployment.

The RB13804 is an easy-to-use barebones server solution that pre-integrates a 2-socket Intel Server Board to ensure a flexible, scalable design with mission-critical reliability. Notably, the RB13804 offers tri-mode storage with interchangeable backplane that enables universal drive bays that can switch between SAS, SATA and NVMe storage types, allowing a single server to upgrade according to the growing needs of the business.



Intel Xeon Scalable Server Barebone with 4X Hot-Swap Drive Bays and 2X FHHL Expansion
The 1U server barebone system is pre-tested to ensure compatibility and long-term reliability with the pre-installed Intel S2600WFTR Server Board. The Chenbro RB13804 chassis is available with 4X 3.5-inch tri-mode storage bays, plus optional 2-bay 2.5-inch internal drive bays and 1X slim ODD bay for maximum configuration flexibility. Internal AIB expansion is provided by 2X FHHL, in addition to the integrated I/O module and RAID module. The barebones design includes a premium 800 W CRPS 80 Plus Platinum grade PSU, optimized cable routing, plus 6X easy-swap, 22.5K RPM cooling fans with airflow optimized ducts to ensure reliable cooling for two CPUs up to 165 W each, the high-performance PCI-Express expansion cards and all storage hardware. Up to 24X ECC UDIMM 2933MT/s slots are supported enabling a maximum 7.5 TB of storage and networking is provided by 2X 10GbE via RJ45, plus one remote management port. The scalable design also includes expansion space for another CRPS PSU.

Logo Branding & Customization Services for Rackmount Server Chassis
As with other Chenbro chassis, the RB13804 barebone is available for branding customization. The server case can be modified to meet a customer's needs, including personalized silkscreens, logo plates, and tailor-made bezels to create a Data Center Rackmount in the customer's brand image. Thanks to an agile organization, Chenbro's server customization services can support requests from System Integrators and MSP's for their exclusive clients requiring select quantities.

Quality Server Manufacturing for Fast & Safe Server Assembly by MSP
Building on its 37 years of Taiwan manufacturing excellence, Chenbro assures a quality product manufactured with a sturdy frame and no sharp edges to ensure the well-being of assembly teams in system integrators, rack and stack service providers. The RB13804 barebone server employs a tool-less design for upgrades and maintenance, including storage, HDD trays, system fans, and PCI-Express riser brackets.

RB13804 Global Availability Starting Immediately
The RB13804 is available immediately through Chenbro offices and partners. Chenbro is dedicated to supporting global System Integrators through its wide network of distribution partners in North America, Europe, and Asia, or it can support larger orders directly.

An odd time to start making servers...and Intel ones at that.

An odd time to start making servers...and Intel ones at that.

while the Arm server chip upstarts, Ampere Computing and Marvell, were not planning for a global pandemic when they timed the launches of their chips on their roadmaps, they may be among the beneficiaries of the budget tightening that will no doubt start at most companies – if it hasn’t already. They would do well to get their chip samples ramped and products into the field as soon as possible.

It is pretty clear at this point that there is going to be a global recession thanks to the coronavirus outbreak. Maybe it will be a V-shaped recession

I wonder if this servers have any comparable technology like iLO on the HPE servers...

It's not a server, it's a Chen Bro

What year is it? 2005? Oh . . . It's 'hyper-converged'.

Intel's version of a JetEngine but doesn't go far: Hot & noisy.
