The concept is to have many small, easy-to-replace, easy-to-scale-in-increments parts, hence the 1U form factor. These usually have 10 NVMe drives. You need more IOPS or space? Just add one more node and be done with it
After a quick glance something between EPYC 7251 and 7351 should do, Intel P4610 SSDs, plus 128-ish GB RAM, but picking the CPU is like stabbing in the dark, for RAM I still need to read through the Ceph planning guides. Any suggestions? Our current choice is AS-1113S-WN10RT, Thinkmate has a configurator for the parts and disks.

For networking we'll prolly settle with some Mellanox Connect-X dual 100G card and a 32x100G switch from FiberStore.
