Looking for a compact 1U dual node high availability type system
including two power supplies (either redundant or independent) with each node supporting:
- Intel Xeon-D: 8 or 16 cores
- 4x 32 GB ECC DDR4-2400
- 10Gb Ethernet (RJ45, not SFP+)
- 2x NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD’s (software RAID1), such as Samsung's SM963 or PM963.
- Hot swap 2.5" or 3.5" bays for additional storage.
Does such a thing currently exist on the market?
Have considered Supermicro's 1U TwinPro series,
however the AOC-SLG3-2M2 Add-on Card has not been validated/tested with the 10GbE X10DRT-PT board
and it appears two Xeon CPU's are required for using NVMe's via the PCIe slot,
which doubles Microsoft's SPLA (Service Provider Licence Agreement) per CPU licensing costs for
Windows Server virtual machines etc., according to Microsoft's SPUR (Services Provider Use Rights).
