Hello everyone,

I've read some crossflash threads - flashing 530-8i and crossflash thread :

Anyway, I think every thread ended in failure;
but I tried, because I have two same cards.

storcli.efi /c0 download completeflash fileone=vtboot01.rom filetwo=9460-8i_nopad.rom

Flashed Successfully. power off, remove SBR jumper and boot, I made a brick!

EPYCD8 mainboard post code stucked at 92 - PCIe initialization stage.

after forced power off, insert SBR jumper and boot - boot normally, card recognizes in storcli.

Try one more:
storcli.efi /c0 download completeflash fileone=vtboot01.rom filetwo=lenovo_930.rom

Flashed Successfully. power off, remove SBR jumper and boot, no blinking LED on card, storcli can't show card, now it's dead.

The card recognizes only when SBR jumper inserted.

Anyway I messed flash memory on card. someone have an idea, please say it!


extracted SBR file attached - before brick the card.
