    [FS][ US-Canada-Mex] New Dell Powerdge GPU middle fan tray (Dell P/N) 6KK42

    If you have a Dell T640 without the middle fan tray, you'll probably want this. This is a spare I've had for over a year and it's sitting unused. Asking 149USD + Shipping (Fedex Ground in America would work great unless you're in a hurry). If you have a T640 server, you probably want this part...

    plz help! HP Proliant ML350 Gen9 and HGST SN260 NVMe = Red Screen of Death. Anyone seen that?

    Hi, I shipped several Cisco-Branded HGST SN260 HHHL 3.83Tb PCIe cards (at the latest v122 firmware) to a friend of mine and his HPe ML350 Proliant Gen9 no longer POST. It results in a red screen of death (see picture). Has anyone seen that before and solved it on the Gne9's?

    Those HGST 3.84Tb SN260 drives and Cisco firmware...

    I recently got a couple HUSMR7638BHP3Y1´s ( 3.84Tb ) from ebay.. Things went fine during transport but when I got the drives, I had the displeasure to notice that: 1) they had a Cisco UCS firmware (I had previously obtain HGST firmwares). 2) the v111 firmware was too old and did not work in my...

    URGENT: If you have a working PowerEdge T140 and 128G memory, don't BIOS update to 2.8.3

    I upgraded to 2.8.3 a working Dell T140 with a Xeon and 4 x 32G DDR4 2933 UDIMM memory this morning. I was greeted by: I'm attempting to roll back to 2.7.1 at the moment. I guess they (Dell) took Offense at us calling them bluff on T140's with 128G memory and Xeons. I'm done with them, Lenovo...

    Upgrading the PSU in a Dell PowerEdge T1X0 (T130/T140/T150)? Anyone?

    Hello, This is Vincent, your crazy Dell Servers-as-workStations subversion freak. :) I like my T140 and unlike the bigger brothers, it mostly tolerates 3rd-party stuff way better. I've been thinking of getting another one and placing my 3080 Ti in it. Of course, since the 3080 Ti is a wattage...

    The Dell Poweredge T640 storage sensors interpretation/calculation are 100% WRONG most of the time...

    This is something I am not experiencing with my other 14th gen (a T140). When Dell took away from us (end-users) the ability to control Fans in iDRAC 3.34.34.34, I hoped they would at least get it right but it appears that they got in wrong (most of the time) with both SUPPORTED and UNSUPPORTED...

    Help requested : Looking for SSD firmware for HGST/Huawei drives (SDLL1HLR076T5CHS)

    I recently got one more HGST 7.68Tb SAS SSDs SS200 I thought I was going to be good with the firmware that HGST had provided me earlier for another HGST-driver but it appears that this unit (SDLL1HLR076T5CHS vs SDLL1HLR076T5CCA1) does have OEM firmware which I -think- is from Huawei: Vendor...

    Saying Nothing vs Saying Something 100% untrue (aka Lies and HGST SAS on Dell PowerEdge)

    I recently got into an email argument with a Dell escalation manager about $subject. I'm posting here to raise awareness. It seems Dell thinks it's 100% OK to lie about 3rd party FRUs. (answer: It's not OK and it's not the right thing to do). Having obtained some (almost unused) shiny HGST...

    The quest for the HGST UltraStar SN260 firmware updates...

    This is turning into a sh**t show of how pathetic this industry is turning. Quick recap: Any iDRAC update after 5.00.yy.z bricks my Dell PowerEdge T640 if the two Dell-Banded HGST NVMe drives are present in the system. (yellow screen of death). - Case opened with Dell support. They tried to...

    HGST HUSMR7676BHP3Y1 firmware? (SN200 7.68Tb)

    Hi, I have a few of these (all on KNGND101) and I can see signs of more recent firmwares in a few places, e.g: https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/detail.php?deviceCategory=io&productid=44411 (says KNGND110). I'm researching a failure to boot with iDRAC >= 5.00.yy.z if those drives...

    8 x SSD drives in a Dell PowerEdge T140 in place of 4 x 3.5 HDDs... Need Y PCIe 6pin adapter

    This is related to the Dell PoweEdge t140 If my Math is correct, 8 x consumer SSDs should pull less power than 4 x 3.5HDDs. With the current cabling in the T140, only one SFF port on my H730P is used. I was able to buy a 2nd SAS/SATA x 4 cable that I will connect to the 2nd port of my H730P...

    Better heatsink for the Dell PowerEdge T140? Get the T340 heatsink!

    Hi all, I have a Dell T140 and this thing has been running like a champ with my 8C/16T E-2278G. The 95W heatsink for the T140 seems unobtainable outside of Asia.. does anyone know of a heatsink which would fit (and on which I could retrofit the current cpu fan)? The socket is 1151 but in typical...

    Rare: 2400W new HotSwap Dell PSU with two NEMA 5-15P to CPC19 cables. R940, R740, R640, T640

    I bought this 2400W PSU for my T630 think it would accept it even if I stayed low on the voltage. Result: It works in my T640 but not in my T630 (it doesn't even powerup). On 110V, the 2400W PSU is the only PSU which provides -more- wattage than the 1100W PSU...

    128Gb RAM in PowerEdge T140 possible?

    The Dell T140 takes 4 DIMMs (ECC UDIMMs or regular DIMMs). When the T140 was introduced, only 16G ECC UDIMM were available. I'm considering the purchase of a T140 to replace a same-gen Precision T3431 that's already maxed out at 64G, I'd like to confirm if the T140 could go to 128G RAM with...
