Dual-socket SP3 server for EPYC 7002 and 7003

This 2U rackmount barebone accepts two AMD EPYC processors in SP3 sockets. It targets builders who need a general-purpose platform with redundant 1600 W power supplies operating at 200-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. The chassis includes front I/O with two USB 3.2 Gen1 ports, one COM port and one VGA output driven by an Aspeed AST2500 controller. Buyers who want a single-socket system or a tower form factor should look elsewhere.

Tool-less drive bays and riser-mounted expansion

Two hot-swap 2.5 NVMe bays at the front allow drive changes without removing the lid. Two M.2 slots are provided: one M-key with PCIe 3.0 x4 or SATA 6 Gb/s for 2280/2242 modules, and a second M-key with PCIe 3.0 x2 for 2280/2260/2242/2230 modules. Expansion uses riser cards: each CPU gets one dual-slot PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and one FHHL PCIe 4.0 x8 slot, plus an OCP NIC 3.0 x16 slot. Dual-slot GPU compatibility must be confirmed with the manufacturer, and full-height cards may require a 1U CPU heatsink change.

32 DIMM slots for DDR4 3200 with ECC

The board populates 16+16 DDR4 288-pin slots in a 2DPC layout, supporting RDIMM, RDIMM-3DS, LRDIMM and LRDIMM-3DS modules with ECC. Maximum memory capacity scales with the chosen EPYC processors and module density. Two NVMe bays plus two M.2 slots cover boot and caching needs, but the platform has no 3.5-inch bays or additional SATA ports for bulk storage arrays. Builders requiring many spinning drives or more than two PCIe x16 devices will exceed the chassis limits.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the ASRock Rack 2U2E-F/ROME2 is working after installing two AMD EPYC 7003 processors?

The Aspeed AST2500 BMC provides IPMI over LAN; connect a monitor to the VGA port or use the web UI to confirm both CPUs appear, all 32 DIMM slots report DDR4 3200 ECC memory, and the two hot-swap 2.5" NVMe bays show drives.

What comes in the box and which parts must I purchase separately for the 2U2E-F/ROME2?

The barebone includes the 2U chassis, dual SP3 motherboard, 1+1 redundant 1600W CRPS (200-240VAC, 50/60Hz), risers for two PCIe4.0 x16 and two PCIe4.0 x8 slots, and an OCP NIC 3.0 bay. You must buy AMD EPYC 7002/7003 CPUs, DDR4 288-pin RDIMM/LRDIMM modules, NVMe drives for the hot-swap bays, and M.2 2280/2242 or 2230/2242/2260/2280 SSDs.

Which DDR4 3200 ECC modules fit the 16+16 DIMM slots on the 2U2E-F/ROME2?

The board accepts 288-pin DDR4 3200 RDIMM, RDIMM-3DS, LRDIMM and LRDIMM-3DS modules; populate up to 16 per CPU socket (2DPC) for a total of 32 modules.
