ASUS RS720A-E13-RS24U-27KW10G: Ultimate Storage-Dense 2U NVMe Server

Supercharge your data center’s storage and compute capabilities with the ASUS RS720A-E13-RS24U-27KW10G. Driven by dual next-generation AMD EPYC™ 9005 series processors, this 2U powerhouse is engineered on the advanced DC-MHS architecture for unmatched modularity.

Extreme Dual AMD EPYC™ Processing Power

The ASUS RS720A-E13-RS24U is designed to tackle the most demanding computing challenges of the modern enterprise. Powered by dual AMD EPYC™ 9005 series processors with support for up to 500W TDP per socket, this server provides colossal core counts and processing threads. This ensures rapid data processing, seamless multitasking, and peak efficiency across cloud computing, virtualization, and enterprise AI workloads.

Unrivaled Density with 24 All-Flash NVMe Bays

The defining feature of the RS24U configuration is its extraordinary storage density. Equipped with 24 front-accessible 2.5" all-flash NVMe hot-swap bays, this server completely eliminates data bottlenecks. It provides the extreme IOPS and ultra-low latency required for real-time big data analytics, high-frequency trading, and demanding database applications. Paired with 24 DIMM slots supporting ultra-fast DDR5 memory up to 6000 MHz (1DPC) for a maximum capacity of 3TB, it easily feeds data-hungry CPUs.

Modular DC-MHS Architecture & Gen5 Expansion

Future-proof your IT infrastructure with the modular Data Center Modular Hardware System (DC-MHS) architecture, which allows for seamless integration, easier upgrades, and optimized thermal performance. Despite its dense storage footprint, the system offers incredible expandability. Leveraging PCIe 5.0 technology, it supports high-bandwidth networking, DPUs, and up to three dual-slot GPUs (like the NVIDIA H100 NVL) for computational acceleration. Dual OCP 3.0 Gen5 x16 slots ensure highly flexible and ultra-fast networking configurations.

Enterprise-Grade Security & Out-of-Band Management

Protect your mission-critical data with hardware-level security. The RS720A-E13 features a PFR (Platform Firmware Resilience) FPGA acting as the Root-of-Trust, alongside a Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) to secure the system via integrated cryptographic keys and safeguard against firmware vulnerabilities. IT administrators can seamlessly manage the server remotely utilizing the onboard ASMB12-iKVM and ASUS Control Center, reducing downtime and streamlining maintenance.
