Frequently asked questions

Why does my ThinkSystem ST650v3 server hang at the Windows logo after adding a virtual drive to the 9350-16i RAID controller?

To resolve this issue, check the BIOS settings to ensure the m.2 NVMe drive is set as the primary boot device and that the boot mode for the RAID controller is configured to UEFI. Additionally, update the firmware and drivers for the RAID controller and verify the RAID configuration to ensure it does not conflict with the boot drive settings. [community thread]

Why can't I install Windows Server 2025 on my SR650 v3 with RAID1 configuration?

Ensure that you are using UEFI boot mode, as Windows Server 2025 requires it and does not support Legacy mode. Additionally, make sure to import the Intel software RAID driver during installation, or consider using the LXPM deployment method, which automatically includes necessary drivers. [community thread]

How can I resolve issues with configuring RAID on a ThinkSystem SR630 V3 with NVMe drives?

To successfully configure RAID with the 940 RAID controller, ensure you are using U.3 NVMe drives, as other types are not supported. Additionally, verify that the internal cabling connects the RAID controller to the backplane without any conflicts from onboard NVMe connections. Lastly, adjust the backplane speed settings to U.3 x1 lane speed using the XCC2 GUI. [community thread]

What should I do if my server shows a critical sensor drive mismatch error after an XCC update?

This issue may arise after updating to XCC version 5.50, which includes a fix for drive mismatch reporting. Check the physical connections of your drives and ensure that the controller is installed in the correct PCIe slot, as improper placement can lead to detection errors. If the problem persists, consider updating the controller firmware or contacting support for further assistance. [community thread]

Can I replace the SAS backpanel with an NVMe backpanel on the SR650 v3 server without issues?

Yes, the SR650 v3 server supports various configurations for front drive bays, including NVMe backpanels. Ensure that the RAID card and NVMe cables are properly configured with the new disk panel. [community thread]
