Which is better for a new EPYC build?

The Supermicro H12SSL-NT. It takes EPYC 7002 and 7003 chips, which are newer and still sold new. The Gigabyte MZ01-CE0 stops at EPYC 7001.

Can the Gigabyte MZ01-CE0 run an EPYC 7002 or 7003?

No. Gigabyte lists support for EPYC 7001 series processors only.

Which has better storage options?

The Supermicro. It has onboard SATA, SAS and PCIe M.2. The Gigabyte listing shows no onboard storage connectors.

Is the Gigabyte worth the $1,045.00 price?

Only if you already have an EPYC 7001 CPU. For a new build, the Supermicro's newer CPU support is worth comparing against its price.

Do both boards fit the same case?

Yes. Both are ATX boards, so they fit standard ATX cases and use the same mounting holes.
