The ConnectX-5 version of the ASUS RS500A-E11-RS12U combines a dual-port Mellanox ConnectX-5 network adapter with a single AMD EPYC 7742 processor, 64-Core (64 Total). This refurbished 1U server has sixteen DDR4 DIMM slots and twelve 2.5-inch hot-swap storage bays. Expansion includes three PCIe Gen4 slots (one x16 full-height, one x16 low-profile, and one x8 low-profile) plus an OCP 3.0 mezzanine socket; the installed add-in card occupies one of these, so available expansion capacity depends on the current configuration. Power is supplied by two 800W Platinum-rated units in a 1+1 redundant arrangement. Sold as CPU only — no memory, drives, or power cords included. Drive carriers included as pictured; inner rails only, outer rail kit not included.

We test every server before you do.
Every server Server Part Deals sells passes an internal 4-stage testing protocol before it ships. While many resellers stop at a basic power-on check, we validate installed hardware, firmware, system performance, thermals, and stability under sustained load. Each server is tested to confirm that it meets or exceeds its listed specifications.
Stage 1: Physical Inspection
- Chassis and structural inspection
- Port, connector, and backplane check
- Fan, heatsink, and airflow inspection
- Shipping-damage and component-security check
Stage 2: Hardware & Firmware Validation
- CPU, RAM, and storage verification
- BIOS and firmware validation
- RAID and controller detection
- Remote-management interface check
Stage 3: Performance Testing
- Processor and memory benchmarking
- Storage and network throughput testing
- Multi-component load simulation
- Power and thermal-performance validation
Stage 4: Stability & System Testing
- Extended burn-in testing
- Hardware-error and event-log review
- Fan, temperature, and power monitoring
- Final boot and configuration verification
