Fruitful expansion capability and MIO-892 audio card support Z10PA-U8 has exceptional PCI Express expandability and also PCI slot for legacy card support. With the ASUS innovative Flex-E technology, the Z10PA-U8 server board intelligently split or aggregate the link to support up to 2 PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots or 4 PCI Express 3.0 x8 slots. In addition, PCI slot could support legacy PCI devices like surveillance video capture or industrial control to prolong customers’ investment. Moreover, MIO-892 audio card support could offer great sound quality and 7.1 surround channel audio experience. Mass storage capacity and additional OS storage Z10PA-U8 is equipped with ten 6 Gb/s SATA ports, offering support for mass storage capacity. In an alternative configuration, Z10PA-U8 has nine 6 Gb/s SATA and an M.2 slot for a solid-state drive — ideal for an operating system boot drive! In this generation, ASUS has a whole new PIKE solution, standard PCI-E form factor for user to equip with multiple PIKE II cards on one motherboard which maximizes the expandability and utilizations. Just placing the PIKE II card, Z10PA-U8 can immediately enlarge the capacity, upgrade to 12G solution and improve the performance, making it the great upgrade option. Premium components for premium efficiency ASUS Z10 server board series design the premium power solution with the hand-chosen components and provide premium efficiency which is up to 94%. The premium power solution consist 4 pillars to achieve the 94% premium efficiency: Beat Thermal Choke, Dr. MOS, 12K capacitor and Digi+ VRM. A special fin design of Beat-Thermal-Choke results in 3-5?-lower choke temperatures and raise the stability, and translates into minimal-loss power delivery. The Dr. MOS is a proven stable circuit integrated MOSFET, which can optimize the switching performance and contribute the efficiency to the system. ASUS DIGI+ VRM design empowers users with superior flexibility and has the perfect precision to ensure optimized performance, extreme system stability. Moreover, ASUS is the world’s first server manufacturer to introduce 12K solid capacitors which are able to withstand up to 1,200,000 hours of temperatures as high as 65°C (12K hours@105°C). These 12K capacitors can also lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) and thus to increase efficiency and minimal heat generation. Quick Initialization Guidance The ASUS Z10 Series features quick initialization guidance which let users realize system initialization state in seconds; furthermore users are able to diagnose system instantly through POST code message in the POST stage. The quick initialization guidance during the POST includes 2 phases. In phase 1 -- POST in seconds, the screen lightens in seconds to make users instantly access to system initializing status. In phase 2, device scanning information and 2-digit POST code messages are available to give users a total understanding of startup process and to clearly indicate boot-up status which is easy for maintenance. Complete remote server management The optional ASMB8-iKVM (IPMI 2.0-compliant) enables remote update BIOS, standalone KVM/Java utility, video recording and BSOD capture. Based on out-of-band management, even if the server operating system is down or offline, the KVM module can still provide round-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnosis through a user-friendly web-based graphical interface via all major browsers. In addition, ASWM Enterprise software provides one-to-multiple centralized management including BIOS flash, software dispatch, task scheduler, remote control, and power control, all through a colorful and informative graphical interface. Through ASUS remote management solution, users could save time and effort on server management and trouble-shooting.   Processor / System Bus 1 x Socket R3 (LGA 2011-3; Square type 80x80mm)  Intel® Xeon® processor E5-1600 v3 product family Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v4 product family  Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v3 product family Core Logic Intel® C612 PCH Memory Total Slots : 8 (4-channel per CPU, 8 DIMM per CPU)  Capacity : Maximum up to 512GB LRDIMM Memory Type : DDR4 2400 /2133 /1866/1600/1333 RDIMM* DDR4 2400 /2133 /1866/1600/1333 LRDIMM* Memory Size : 32GB, 16GB, 8GB, 4GB RDIMM 64GB, 32GB LRDIMM Expansion Slots Total Slot : 6 Slot Location 1 : PCI-E x8 (Gen2 X4 Link)  Slot Location 2 : PCI 32bit/33MHz  Slot Location 3 : PCI-E x8 (Gen3 X8 Link)  Slot Location 4 : PCI-E x16 (Gen3 X16 Link), Auto switch to x8 link if slot 3 is occupied  Slot Location 5 : PCI-E x8 (Gen3 X8 Link)  Slot Location 6 : PCI-E x16 (Gen3 X16 Link), Auto switch to x8 link if slot 5 is occupied  Slot Location 7 : MIO Slot for Audio card Form Factor ATX (12"x9.6", 305mm x 244mm) *1 ASUS Features FAN speed control Rack Ready (Rack and Pedestal dual use) ASWM Enterprise Storage SATA Controller : Intel® C612 10 x SATA3 6Gb/s ports  or  9 x SATA3 6Gb/s ports + 1 x M.2 connector *2 Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise(RSTe) (For Windows Only) (Support Software RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 ) LSI® MegaRAID (For Linux/Windows)  (Support Software RAID 0, 1, 10 ) SAS Controller : ASUS PIKE II 3008 8-port SAS HBA card(Optional) ASUS PIKE II 3108 8-port SAS HW RAID card(Optional) Networking 2 x Intel® I210AT + 1 x Mgmt LAN Graphic Aspeed AST2400 with 32MB VRAM On Board I/O 1 x TPM header 1 x PSU Power Connector (24-pin ATX power connector + 8-pin ATX 12V power connector) 1 x Management Connector , Onboard socket for optional management card 1 x USB 3.0 pin header , Up to 2 Devices 1 x USB 2.0 pin header , Up to 2 Devices 6 x Fan Header , 4pin 1 x SMBus  1 x Chassis Intruder 2 x Front LAN LED 1 x Serial Port Header 1 x M.2 Connector , NGFF Type : 2242, Capacity : 16~128GB Back I/O Ports 2 x USB 3.0 2 x USB 2.0 1 x VGA Port 2 x GbE LAN 1 x Mgmt LAN 1 x PS/2 KB/Mouse Management Solution ASWM Enterprise Optional ASMB8-iKVM for KVM-over-Internet Environment Operation temperature: 10? ~ 35?
