Dual-socket 1U barebone for scale-out workloads
The Supermicro SYS-120H-TNR is a 1U rackmount barebone that accepts two 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors in LGA 4189 sockets. It provides 32 DDR4 3200 ECC DIMM slots with a maximum capacity of 12 TB. The Intel C621A north bridge connects three PCIe 4.0 x16 slots and an OCP 3.0 AIOM networking slot.
Suited for virtualization.
This chassis targets deployments that need dense compute, large memory footprints and flexible GPU or accelerator expansion in a single rack unit. It is not for buyers who require installed processors or memory, nor for builds that need more than three full-height PCIe slots or support for processor generations beyond the supported Xeon line.
Eight hot-swap bays and dual M.2 slots shape
Eight 2.5-inch hot-swap bays accept NVMe, SATA or SAS drives, while two internal M.2 slots take NVMe or SATA modules. Optional RAID functionality is added through a storage add-on card. Eight heavy-duty hot-swap fans with automated speed control maintain airflow for the configured drive and card population.

Questions about this item
Which CPUs and how many DIMMs do I need to populate the dual LGA 4189 sockets and 32 DDR4 slots?
Install one or two 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors and up to 32 DDR4 3200 ECC RDIMM or LRDIMM modules for a maximum of 12 TB.
Can I keep using my existing 2.5″ SATA SSDs in the eight hot-swap bays?
Yes, the eight 2.5″ hot-swap bays accept NVMe, SATA or SAS drives, so current SATA SSDs will work directly.
How do I verify the system recognises all 32 DIMM slots and three PCI-E 4.0 x16 slots after assembly?
Check the BIOS memory map for 32 populated slots and confirm three PCI-E 4.0 x16 links at full width in the PCIe configuration screen.
