Frequently asked questions

How can I disable the third-party PCI fan response on an R640 server?

To turn off the default fan speed response for a third-party PCI card, use the command 'racadm set system.thermalsettings.ThirdPartyPCIFanResponse 0'. If you encounter an 'Invalid object specified' error, ensure that your iDRAC firmware is up to date and that you are using the correct command syntax. [community thread]

What should I do if I encounter memory errors after swapping CPUs in a Dell R640?

If you experience memory errors after a CPU swap, first try reseating the CPUs and removing power for at least 24 hours. If the issue persists, inspect the memory slot for any visible damage and consider testing with the original CPUs. If problems continue, it may indicate a motherboard issue. [community thread]

What rail and cable management kit is compatible with the R330 server?

For the R330 server, you can use the ReadyRails 1U Static Rails (SKU: 770-BBIC) or the ReadyRails Sliding Rails without a cable management arm (SKU: 770-BBJS). Additionally, a 1U Cable Management Arm (SKU: 770-BBIE) is available for cable organization. [community thread]

Can I use both SAS and NVMe drives in an R640 server configuration?

The R640 supports a mixed configuration, but the last four slots are designated solely for NVMe drives, meaning SAS drives cannot be installed there. Additionally, there is no hardware NVMe RAID available for this server generation. [community thread]

What type of heat sink is needed for an Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processor in an R640 server?

For the Intel Xeon Gold 6134, a standard heat sink rated for up to 165W, such as part number 0F8NV, is suitable. The C6R9H heat sink, which supports up to 125W, may not be adequate for optimal performance. [community thread]
