The refurbished Supermicro WIO A+ Server AS-2114S-WN24RT is a 2U, single-socket NVMe powerhouse built for workloads that need serious storage throughput in a compact footprint. Powered by a single AMD EPYC 7002/7003 Series processor on the SP3 platform, this is a professionally refurbished unit pulled from production environments and rebuilt to full working spec — the kind of machine that earns its place in a rack the hard way. If your storage tier has been the bottleneck, this is how you fix it.
On the processor side, you've got multiple AMD EPYC options ranging from 24 to 64 cores, so you can match the CPU to your actual workload rather than overpaying for compute you won't use. Where this server really stands out, though, is storage: all 24 front-accessible 2.5" bays support U.2 NVMe PCIe SSDs, with SATA SSD options available in every bay as well. The short version is — you're looking at a platform that can move a staggering amount of data, fast. Two additional m.2 PCIe NVMe slots round out the internal storage picture if you need OS or caching drives out of the way.
This is a workhorse platform that thrives in environments like:
- All-flash storage arrays: Fill all 24 U.2 NVMe bays and you've got an extremely dense, high-throughput block storage node at a fraction of what new hardware would run you.
- Database acceleration: The combination of high core counts, massive memory headroom, and direct NVMe access makes this a natural fit for latency-sensitive databases — MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Oracle, take your pick.
- Backup and archive targets: High bay density and flexible drive options mean you can build tiered storage in a single chassis — fast NVMe up front, SATA SSD for secondary — without needing another box.
- Virtualization storage hosts: Running vSAN, Ceph, or a similar software-defined storage layer? The 24-bay NVMe configuration is exactly what those workloads are hungry for.
- HPC scratch and staging storage: High-performance computing jobs that need fast intermediate storage will appreciate having this many NVMe bays addressable from a single node.
- Cloud and cluster infrastructure: Whether you're building out a private cloud or a compute cluster that needs a dedicated storage node, the AS-2114S-WN24RT handles the job cleanly.
Power is handled by a pair of redundant 1200W 80 Plus Titanium power supplies, which means no single-point failure on the power side and excellent efficiency under load — that matters when you're running 24 NVMe drives around the clock. Network connectivity is built in with integrated dual 10GbE RJ45 ports (Broadcom BCM57416), and remote management is covered by a dedicated IPMI v2.0 out-of-band management port — so you can get eyes on the system without being in the same room, or the same building.
Here's the thing about buying a used Supermicro AS-2114S-WN24RT: you're getting enterprise-grade hardware that was built to run continuously in data centers, not a consumer product that happened to come with a rack-mount kit. Every professionally refurbished unit we sell goes through full functional testing and is configured to order before it ships — so what arrives is exactly what you specced out. You're saving a significant amount over new pricing on hardware that was designed to outlast most of the software running on it.
