1.1 Overview

Figure 1-1: GRAND-BDE Series Storage Server

Powered by an advanced 14nm Intel® Xeon® D 64-bit SoC processor with an integrated

PCH, and up to 128 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM RAM, the GRAND-BDE series storage server

delivers outstanding performance for data transmission and applications.

The GRAND-BDE supports SAS 12Gb/s 2.5” drives, allowing for SAS 12Gb/s and SATA

6Gb/s hard drives and SSDs. Businesses can create the most cost-effective storage by

implementing suitable drives based on their needs.

1.2 Features

The GRAND-BDE series has the following features

 Dual Intel® Xeon® D processor (with 4-core, 6-core and 8-core

configurations)

 Supports four DDR4 RAM modules for UDIMM and ECC RDIMM (up to 64GB

UDIMM RAM, up to 128GB RDIMM RAM)

 Supports 12Gb/s SAS hard drives and SSDs for fast data transfer and

highly-reliable storage.

 Four high-speed PCIe Gen.3 and one PCIe Gen.2; supports 10GbE/ 40GbE

adapters and PCIe NVMe SSD

 Four Gigabit ports
