If your server indicates a low CMOS battery, it is necessary to replace the battery. Additionally, updating the firmware may help enhance battery performance. [community thread]
If you're experiencing low write speeds of 15-20 MBps, this may be expected due to the cacheless nature of the 5350 controller, which operates in write-through mode. To potentially improve performance, you can enable the drive cache using the MegaRAID BIOS interface or storcli commands. For significant speed enhancements, consider upgrading to a controller with a cache module. [community thread]
Check the settings in the XCC GUI to ensure that 'IBM Over KCS Access' and 'Ethernet over USB' are both enabled. Additionally, consider reinstalling the BoMC utility and following the official guide step by step, ensuring that 'Enable Task Auto Run' is selected and the BMC access information is correctly configured.

The SR630 V2 server is compatible with SAS SSDs, but it's advisable to use drives that are factory-shipped for the best performance and compatibility. For specific storage options, refer to the manufacturer's documentation. [community thread]
Yes, the Lenovo XClarity Essentials UpdateXpress (UXSP) tool allows for easy updates of drivers and firmware on the ThinkSystem SR630 V2. You can download it from the Lenovo Support website by searching for your specific server model and accessing the 'Drivers & Software' section. [community thread]
To reset the server, you can try removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard for an extended period, or look for a CMOS jumper to reset the BIOS settings. If those options are unavailable or ineffective, check for any switch blocks on the motherboard that may assist in the reset process. [community thread]
The NVMe U.3 drives require a direct PCIe x4 connection to the motherboard, rather than routing through the SAS/SATA RAID controller. Ensure that the backplane ports for the NVMe disks are configured to use PCIe lanes x4, while the SAS/SATA devices can utilize the RAID controller. [community thread]
It is not advisable to mix different types or amperages of fans in the ThinkSystem SR630 V2, as this can lead to critical fan mismatch errors and increased noise levels. Only use Lenovo-supported fan modules of the same type, either all Standard or all Performance, to ensure proper operation. [community thread]
