## Long description

GIGABYTE R163-Z32-AAC1 is a 1U server barebone built around an AMD SoC motherboard with an LGA 6096 socket. Designed for rack deployments, it supports DDR4 RDIMM memory up to 256GB with RDIMM speeds up to 4800 MHz, offers front-accessible 2.5" drive bays and internal M.2 storage, and includes integrated Aspeed AST2500 graphics for remote management. Network connectivity is provided by Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000). The chassis and motherboard combination targets compact, energy-efficient server use cases where density and manageability are priorities.
Advantages
The barebone provides a compact 1U form factor optimized for rack installations and efficient use of data centre space. Integrated Aspeed AST2500 enables remote KVM and out-of-band management without additional cards, simplifying monitoring and maintenance. Support for DDR4 RDIMM up to 256GB and high RDIMM speeds allows for memory-heavy workloads and virtualization. Native 2.5" drive bay support plus M.2 expansion offers flexible storage configurations for both capacity and NVMe boot/accelerator drives. Gigabit Ethernet connectivity ensures wide compatibility with existing networks.
Suitable for
Virtualization hosts and small hyper-converged nodes
Edge computing and branch office servers
Web, application, and database servers with compact rack footprint
Remote management and maintenance environments requiring out-of-band access
Key specifications
Form factor: 1U rack-mount barebone chassis
CPU platform: AMD SoC with LGA 6096 socket
Memory: DDR4 RDIMM support up to 256GB, RDIMM speeds up to 4800 MHz
Storage: front-access 2.5" drive bays and internal M.2 slot(s) for NVMe or SATA M.2 devices
Remote management: integrated Aspeed AST2500 graphics controller for KVM/IPMI
Networking: Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) ports
How to use
Install a compatible AMD processor into the LGA 6096 socket following the manufacturer's thermal and mounting instructions, and populate DDR4 RDIMM modules in matched pairs or per the motherboard manual to reach the required capacity up to 256GB. Fit 2.5" drives into the front bays for bulk storage and install M.2 NVMe or SATA modules on the motherboard M.2 slot(s) for boot or high-performance storage. Connect power and network cables, configure BIOS/UEFI settings to enable remote management features provided by the Aspeed AST2500, and deploy the chosen operating system and hypervisor according to standard server installation procedures.
Usage recommendations
For stable operation, use enterprise-grade DDR4 RDIMM modules that match supported speeds and capacities, and follow recommended airflow and rack spacing for 1U systems. Configure Aspeed-based remote management during initial setup to allow out-of-band access for monitoring and firmware updates. Choose enterprise M.2 and 2.5" drives with suitable endurance ratings for workload type, and ensure firmware and BIOS are kept up to date to maintain compatibility and security.
