Supermicro SuperServer 2029BT-HNC0R - 2U 4-Node BigTwin Server
Four independent, hot-pluggable server nodes share a single 2U chassis, each running its own dual-socket LGA 3647 platform. This is Supermicro's BigTwin architecture: maximum compute density per rack unit without sacrificing per-node serviceability.
Each node takes 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Cascade Lake or Skylake) with up to 28 cores per socket, paired with 24 DIMM slots supporting up to 6TB of DDR4-2933 RDIMM/LRDIMM and Intel Optane DCPMM on Cascade Lake CPUs.
Storage is flexible per node - six SAS3 hot-swap 2.5in bays, or four NVMe plus two SAS3, with a Broadcom 3008 controller in IT mode and two M.2 slots for dedicated boot drives. Networking runs through a SIOM slot, so a network card must be selected alongside the two low-profile PCIe 3.0 x16 slots.
A shared pair of 2200W Titanium-rated (96%) redundant power supplies and four heavy-duty PWM fans keep all four nodes running, cutting the power and cooling overhead compared with four separate 1U servers.
Available configured to order with the CPU, memory, storage and network card combination that matches your workload.

The Supermicro 2029BT-HNC0R packs four independent, hot-swap server nodes into a single 2U chassis, each with its own dual-socket Xeon platform, memory and storage. It's built for operators who need to scale compute in dense, serviceable increments rather than one server at a time.
Use the configurator below to build each node to your workload: choose CPU pairing, memory capacity, drive bay configuration and the SIOM network card the platform needs to reach the network.
Typical Use Cases
- Multi-tenant hosting platforms needing dense, independently serviceable compute nodes
- Hyperconverged infrastructure clusters running vSAN, Ceph or StarWind VSAN
- HPC clusters where per-node dual-socket compute density matters more than single-server power
- VMware ESXi or Proxmox virtualisation hosts consolidated across four nodes in one chassis
- NVMe-accelerated database or analytics workloads needing per-node flash storage
- Cloud service provider scale-out compute pools built in four-node increments
- Render farms and batch processing clusters where node isolation aids maintenance
- Memory-intensive workloads using Intel Optane DCPMM on Cascade Lake nodes
