GIGABYTE R283-S91-AAE1 barebone server 2U 12+2 bay

SKU CH-383E-F4VDW MPN R283-S91-AAE1

2U rack server barebone with dual Xeon Scalable support, 32 DDR5 DIMM slots, and 12 front hot-swap bays plus 2 rear bays for NVMe, SATA or SAS drives

  • Dual 5th/4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors accelerate AI workloads
  • 32 DDR5 DIMM slots deliver high memory bandwidth for HPC tasks
  • 12 hot-swappable 3.5/2.5-inch bays support Gen4 NVMe SATA SAS drives
  • 2 rear 2.5-inch SATA SAS bays add flexible storage density
  • Dual 1GbE LAN via Intel I350-AM2 ensures reliable network connectivity

Dual-socket Xeon barebone for AI workloads

The GIGABYTE R283-S91-AAE1 is a 2U rack-mount barebone server designed for dual 5th or 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors. It also supports the Intel Xeon CPU Max Series with High Bandwidth Memory. The platform targets artificial intelligence, deep learning and high-performance computing tasks that benefit from built-in acceleration engines and PCIe 5.0 throughput.

Twelve hot-swap bays with four Gen4 NVMe slots

The chassis provides twelve front-accessible drive bays plus two rear 2.5-inch bays. Four of the front bays accept 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch Gen4 NVMe, SATA or SAS drives, while the remaining eight front bays support SATA or SAS only. This mix lets administrators tier fast flash storage alongside high-capacity hard drives without extra enclosures.

Thirty-two DDR5 DIMM slots across eight channels

Memory capacity scales through 32 RDIMM slots organised in an 8-channel architecture per socket. Populating all channels is required to reach the platform's rated memory bandwidth for memory-bound HPC and AI workloads. Builders who cannot fill every slot should evaluate whether a lower-slot-count system meets their performance target.

Questions about this item

How many DDR5 DIMM slots will I need to populate or replace for future memory upgrades?

The board provides 32 DDR5 DIMM slots across eight channels, so any capacity increase means adding or swapping modules in those slots.

Which drive interface will saturate first when the twelve front bays run sustained heavy I/O?

Four bays support Gen4 NVMe while eight bays are limited to SATA or SAS, so the slower SATA/SAS lanes will hit their throughput ceiling before the NVMe lanes.

How loud are the system fans when both Xeon processors and all twelve drives operate continuously?

Fan speed ramps with CPU and drive temperatures; the 2U chassis uses redundant high-airflow fans that become audible under full load.
