ATX is a commonly used desktop motherboard form factor. While it can be used in server environments, EATX is specifically designed to be used in servers and workstations for better scalability, allowing more memory and additional PCIe slots for expansion. ITX and Nano ITX are smaller form factors often used in small form factor computers, HTPCs, or embedded systems, and are not typically associated with the scalability needs of server hardware.
