Pegatron MS303-2A1G-P60
The MS303-2A1G-P60 is designed for E3.S EDSFF storage with GPU acceleration. This form factor maximizes storage density while providing compute capabilities.
The E3.S EDSFF drive bays show the high-density storage configuration. E3.S drives provide substantial capacity in a compact form factor. U.2 tends to have more space for denser devices, but E3.S allows you to pack more devices into a system.
Another angle on the drive bays shows how many drives can fit in this chassis. EDSFF is becoming the standard for high-density storage servers. There are even vertical OCP NIC 3.0 slots which was neat to see.
The GPU configuration shows where acceleration. There are a number of possible configurations, but this one is fitting four liquid-cooled PCIe GPUs into the chassis.
Here is the GPU area with the four liquid-cooled GPUs.
Something worth noting is that this style of chassis we have also seen for dual CPU nodes so some customers like it for the flexibility of customizing each side.
Here is a shot of the liquid-cooled AMD EPYC 9005 host processor and the twelve DDR5 RDIMM slots.
Next, let us get to a storage server.
Pegatron SS201-1A1
The SS201-1A1 is a storage server designed for high-capacity deployments. This system prioritizes drive density using E3.S SSDs.
The front view shows 32x E3.S drive bays. Normally, with U.2 drives, you would expect to see 24 drive bays in a 2U server. A small, but important, detail here is that even with all of this storage, a large amount of the front panel is still set aside and open for cooling. That would not be the case with 24x U.2 SSDs.
This is another AMD EPYC 9005 “Turin” node. Something else we saw is that this one is validated for DDN Infinia which gives you some idea of the customers for a server like this.
Overall, this is a neat design using new standards to deliver high-speed storage to clusters.
This is an air-cooled server and we can see the large numbers of MCIO cables inside to connect all of the drives.
In the rear there are also the power supplies.
Overall, this is a neat AMD EPYC-based storage platform.
Final Words
Pegatron showed an impressive range of systems at GTC 2026, from the massive Vera Rubin NVL72 rack down to compact 2U GPU servers and storage servers. There was a lot here. Some vendors only had a few systems in their booths. Pegatron’s booth was packed with different servers and components.
It is always neat to get to see all of the next-generation hardware, and even the current generation gear at shows like NVIDIA GTC 2026.
