A Taiwanese court has detained two Super Micro employees and an Albatron Technology executive as part of an investigation into alleged smuggling of Nvidia GB300-equipped AI servers to China. Prosecutors allege export documents were falsified to disguise the true destination of servers valued at roughly $22 million. This is the third enforcement action against Super Micro's Taiwan operations in months, following a May port seizure of 50 servers and a late June raid on multiple offices. Super Micro denies being a target of the investigation and says it has placed all questioned employees on administrative leave. The case adds to the company's troubled recent history, which includes a Hindenburg short-seller report, an auditor resignation, and a near-Nasdaq delisting. A separate US federal indictment from March described a $2.5 billion smuggling scheme involving Super Micro's co-founder.
