Yep. It's a regular E-ATX board, just highly stripped down. The seller was (maybe still is) selling the boards separately for cheap.
Seller listed the motherboards for $72 OBO FS. First 10 sales were best offers so they are available for less. Very reasonable for a SuperMicro X9 dual Xeon LGA 2011.

Note that only one expansion slot (PCIe 3.0 x16) is included.
recently picked up two of these -
HYVE ZEUS V1 1U SERVER 2x XEON 6 CORE E5-2620V2 2.1GHz 64GB RAM 1x 1TB SATA | eBay
I reached out to the seller prior to buying them and they included the riser card and rails in the purchase price.
Both running esxi 6.7u2, also having the same issue burtonmadness had with the fan device 8 ps1 fan1 showing as red on both units. Just exchanged a few messages with burtonmadness and after swapping the PSU with another unit from the seller the fault still persisted.
Sound is quite manageable for a 1U server.

I've been eyeing the HYVE ZEUS 1U RACK / SUPERMICRO X9DRD-LF-TW008 listing for a while. For my application, the single PCIe slot without 10Gb ethernet, is the issue. (Thinking Elastic Search Node). So, can the single PCIe port ( list as PCIE4 off the CPU1 - 2nd CPU - in the supermicro user manual ) - can it Bifurcate to 8x8x ?
From how I read the supermicro manual and experience, in the "PCIe Port Bifurcation Control" section, the BIOS when shipped, could NOT Bifurcate.
If it can, then I need to find a 16x to 8x8x ... that would allow wedging a 10gb +PCIe NVMe adaptor in there.
