The Z9NA-D6 server board support dual Intel Xeon server processors in a compact size. It follows standard ATX mounting hole locations and is also ready for ATX power supplies*. The design makes this board able to fit into server rack and tower chassis as well as standard PC ATX cases. All of these benefit users looking for access to server performance with easily-available PC components. 

 

 

The Z9NA-D6 server board ships with two SATA 6Gb/s ports and provides an SAS 6Gb/s storage upgrade path via ASUS PIKE technology. The ASUS optional PIKE provides slim-sized and flexible storage options, direct SAS RAID upgrades can be achieved via a unique slot without sacrificing expansion capability. SATA DOM (Disk on Module) support, which is widely used in various embedded server applications, benefits customers building a diverse range of appliance servers. These technologies enable faster data retrieval, while also creating enhanced storage expandability.

 

 

100% ultra-durable solid state capacitors offer ultra durability, improved lifespan, and enhanced thermal capabilities compared to traditional capacitors. These long-life solid state capacitors can sustain 5,000 hours at 105C ambient temperature, or 500,000 hours of operation at 65 C ambient temperature, further ensuring the Z9NA-D6 remains reliable running even in extreme environments.

 

 

All-new digital CPU power controls work perfectly together to match digital power signal (SVID) requests from the CPU, with ultra-fast sensing and response efficiently delivering precision power. Accurate delivery reduces waste, and provides more stable CPU Vcore voltages. The Z9NA-D6 voltage regulation manages up to 89% peak power efficiency, with 85%+ during most normal operation. This ensures high power efficiency for the entire system to help customers save more electrical bills.

 

 

The ASMB6-iKVM upgrade kit enables dashboard system health monitoring, remote power on/off and control, virtual media over LAN, and management LAN fail-over support. In addition, the ASMB6 function is based on BIOS-level access, so 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 through all major browsers. ASWM Enterprise software provides one-to-multiple centralized management including BIOS flash, remote control, power control through a colorful, graphical, and informative interface.

 

 

The motherboard supports the latest Intel Xeon processor E5-2400 product family in LGA 1356 package with integrated memory controller to support 3 channel (6 DIMM per CPU) DDR3 memory.

System builders can also choose between robust server-grade DDR3 RDIMM/LRDIMM and ECC UDIMM ,and more mainstream, widely available DDR3 non-ECC UDIMM. Additionally, with PCI Express 3.0 support ensures Z9NA-D6 to meet various performance demanding application. By supporting different processor, memory types and PCI Express 3.0 cards, the Z9NA-D6 becomes a versatile MB to cover a wide range of server and entry workstation.
