- Which CPUs does this board support?
- It uses the LGA 1700 socket and is aimed at Intel Xeon E-2400 and 14th-gen Core processors. Check ASRock's CPU support list before buying, since older LGA 1700 chips may not work.
- Does it support ECC memory?
- Yes. It has DDR5 DIMM slots with ECC support, which is a key reason home-lab builders pick it over consumer Mini ITX boards.
- How many drives can I connect?
- There are two SATA III ports and a RAID controller, with no U.2 and no listed M.2 slot. For more drives you need an HBA in the PCIe x16 slot.
- Is dual 10GbE included?
- Yes. The Intel X550 controller provides two 10GBASE-T ports, so you do not need an add-in network card.
- Will it fit a small case?
- It is Mini ITX at 17x17 cm, so it fits most Mini ITX cases. Confirm clearance for the CPU cooler and airflow over the 10GbE controller.
- What is in the box?
- Retail boards typically ship with the board, I/O shield, SATA cables and a quick-start guide. Confirm contents with the seller, as bundles vary.
- Where is the Asrock Mainboard EC266D4ID-2T X550 Mini ITX Sockel 1700 DDR5 cheapest?
- At Newegg, for $510.00, as of our latest check.
