Upgrade memory PowerEdge 2900 III

All 3 poweredge 2900 people use the same type of ram? I have a dell poweredge 2900 III and am looking at an upgrade of ram which is listed as compatible with the first generation, the PC2-5300F. I was wondering if this does not work for my 2900 gen 3.

Also, can someone shed some light on what the maximum capacity of RAM for the 2900 III.

Thank you guys!

Hello.

The PC2-5300F which is a fully Buffered DIMM is which was delivered with all the 9th Gen Dell servers and should be compatible across all revisions of 2900. What is the size of the memory you are looking for? In my view, that the maximum RAM capacity on the 2900 III server is 48 GB.

I hope this answers you questions.

  • PowerEdge 2900 III support xeon x 5470?

    I was wondering if someone can clear this up for me. Can the poweredge 2900 III helps the xeon x 5470 cpu?

    The confusion around this for me comes from the dell documentation, I found on the poweredge 2900 III server that has she supports the xeon 5400 BUT at 3.16 GHz cpu series. The xeon x 5470 3.33 GHz is rated.

    However I saw many times poweredge 2900 III running of x 5470. a quick search pulled up from a few ebay listings for this server with the same cpu. Could there was an update of the bios that allowed support for this processor, and dell documentation is just outdated?

    So, due to conflicting information I see before I go and spend money, can anyone provide me a concrete answer on the question of whether I can run this processor or not?

    Expired documents. The data sheet is dated September 11, 2007, the X 5470 was released in 2008. So there was a BIOS update to add support OR it has not been listed everything simply because it did not yet exist.

    1. There are systems with this CPU.

    2. they are sold by dealers known for this computer.

    It can work in an III, and I recommend the update of the BIOS (and other firmware system) at the latest prior to installation.

  • PowerEdge 2900 III RAID 10?

    Hello

    I have a server PowerEdge 2900 III with SAS 6/iR integrated (Embedded) and SATAu with two bays of 4 HDD int each Bay.

    I would like to install 8 1 TB SATA HARD drive each and make a RAID 10 for all HDD 8 configuration in total, I will have a 4 TB storage.

    Is it possible to do so as PERC 6/iR has two separate connectors?

    Thank you

    AG

    First, it is important to know what controller you have.

    SAS 6/iR can RAID 0 and 1 (and JBOD).

    The PERC 6 / i can do what you are wanting.

    RAID can be configured through the connectors without any problem.

  • PowerEdge 2900 III Aftermarket HDD Upgrade

    Anyone had any experience using the original hot swappable SATA drive door with spare SATA drives?

    I'm looking to get a lot of space on the disk from the cheapest possible. Thanks to Dell accessories, a 160 GB SATA replaceable hot Cust. Kit is listed at $65.99. What I want to do is to replace the 160 GB drive with say a Western Digital 500 GB RE2 SATA drive or more. It's far cheaper, and then you place your order the bigger disks directly from dell with the server or after the initial purchase by parts and accessories.

    All disks in the system will be configured with RAID 1 via the Perc 6 / i

    If one has any comments, please respond!


  • Upgrade memory PowerEdge R610

    Hi all

    I have so few R610s I want to upgrade the memory on. I have read the documentation I found to support, but I'm still a little confused. They are all single-processor (the A side) with six 2 GB DIMMS. (12 GB total) I need to upgrade to 20-24GB. If I read things, I can't use the B side, since there is no processor... What would be the best way to do this and there at - it most clear documentation on how memory banks/channels work? I read that this is a difference where you are installing the module DIMM (A1 A2 A3, etc), but I couldn't understand this past. I've also read that if you use all 6 on one side, it decreases the speed of the bus at 800 mhz. Is this correct? I appreciate any help!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    With BIOS update 1.1.4 it supports two DIMMs per channel at 1333. Given that the system has only two DIMMs in each channel, it will run at full speed with all slots populated. So to get to the memory quantity you need six 4 GB DIMMS. FTP://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_poweredge/PowerEdge-r610_Owner%27s%20Manual2_en-us.PDF

  • Problems upgrade memory PowerEdge T310

    Hello

    Today I tried to update the RAM of a T310 (a X 3440 processor) server using memory 4x8Go

    The motherboard has 6 pitches in a row. (The 1st and the 4th slot have white clips).

    So, I installed 2 DIMM on the 1st and 2nd slot and the other 2 on the slot of 4th and 5th (from top)

    When I start the server, the LCD on the front, displays the following message "Temp: unavailable" (I think that there is more on this message but it stucks there), the fan runs on 100% and nothing happens. No screen, no "beeps", no LED on the keyboard or the mouse, nothing.

    I have upgraded the BIOS to 1.11.0 but rest the problem stil.

    Can you help me please?

    Thanks in advance

    Do you think these bars work? It seems that they are compatible with my server

    Yes, that should work. the memory to 32 GB max 4 of them. Even though they are 1066 MHz they will be operating at 800 MHz if you use 4 of them. If you put only 2, then they will be exploited to 1 066 MHz.

    Thank you

  • Upgrade memory PowerEdge T710

    Hi all

    I currently have a T710 with 144 GB (8 GB 18 locations).  I would consider up to 192 GB of RAM, the cheapest way possible.

    I realize that I can't just drag sticks of 16 GB in there, and that it must be prepared in a certain way (some banks in some processors, etc.).

    Can anyone advise me on what I should buy and what configuration I should look?

    Thank you very much

    -Mark

    Brooky99,

    With the upgrade up to 192 GB of 144 GB you will need to swap the 8 GB DIMMs in the memory locations with WHITE tabs (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3) with 16 GB DIMMs. Who will ensure that the 3 channels by UC are populated the same. This is a valid configuration.

    Let me know how it goes.

  • POWEREDGE 2900 III NOISE

    Hi, we are planning to buy a few PE 2900 to perform simulations and store data. I not read messages on how noisy is the new EP. I would like to have some quantitative information on noise level, expressed in dB and not with adjectives (a little bit, very, very, extremely, etc...). :)

    I can't believe that Dell has not made a measure of noise on these machines. The argument that the PE a server that no one really cares cannot be applied to a model of tower chassis. If I buy a PC rack mounted I'll put it in a calculation of the room, but if I buy a turn one I'll probably put under my desk. In fact, it is our plan, putting the machines in our office.

    All the news are welcome, but in particular, I would like to know what is the level of noise when the two processors operate at 100% for an extended period of time (we intend to buy Dual QuadCore configuration).

    Thank you


  • PowerEdge 2900 & RHEL5 - OMSA complain the warning of storage component.

    I recently installed RHEL5 on our new PowerEdge 2900 III (int. Perc6i controller).  After all the updates, I get this warning in the OMSA:

    The current version of the driver 00.00.03.10 (megaraid_sas) is older than

    Now, I downloaded the 00.00.03.16 version of the megaraid_sas driver, and when I followed the instructions of the .tgz update I get:

  • Dell PowerEdge 2900 - need to use internal drives for RAID

    Hi all

    I am the I.T. guy for small business from my father. I help them on the side.

    They have recently purchased a PowerEdge 2900 server used with 4 internal SCSI drives

    This server also has a Dell SAS 5 / i integrated controller

    I want to install Windows 2008 R2 standard on this server and use it as a file server and a place to host QuickBooks Enterprise.

    The problem, in that I am running is that I can't find in the Bios or anywhere in the server startup utilities where I can configure the 4 internal drives as a RAID 5 array. I want to do this and THEN install the Windows Server operating system. I used the last Build Server utility Dell and also updated all the firmware to the latest versions. The Build Server utility doesn't let me configure the RAID array.  What I'm missing here?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    I upgraded to a PERC 6 / i integrated RAID controller and now problem is solved. Just need a new controller internal RAID.

    Problem is solved!

  • Update of firmware and drivers controller PowerEdge 2900

    Hello

    I have server PowerEdge 2900. Current configuration I see on OMSA:

    BIOS version 2.3.1 (former)

    Controller PERC 6 / i integrated.
    Version of the firmware is up to date.
    Firmware Version 6.0.2 - 0002
    Minimum Firmware Version 6.3.0 - 0001
    4.05.01.64 driver version
    6.1.7601.17577 Storport driver version

    I need to upgrade the firmware of the controller and make the Windows updates on this server. My questions:

    What is the correct order for the upgrade:

    1. Windows updates
    2. BIOS,
    3. ESM firware,
    4. Bottom of basket SAS firmware,
    5. Disk controller
    6. Firmware of the controller,
    My questions would be:
    How can I verify ESM and bottom of basket SAS version of the firmware on my server, maybe I do not need to update those?
    On the Dell support site, I could find only:
    Dell Server BIOS, 2.7.0Dell SAS Backplane Firmware, v.1.05, A01Dell BMC Firmware, v.2.50, A00Dell PERC 6/i Integrated, v.6.3.1-0003, A14
    
    and how to find software to update the drivers:
    4.05.01.64 driver version
    6.1.7601.17577 Storport driver version
    ?
    The Dell supports any automatic tool to collect and install the drivers and firmware required on a single server of Windows (except ITA)?
    Server is very critical, thanks,

    Yes, it's safe.  It can be run from within the OS, or you can start on SBUU and serve Suu repository for update packages.

    In most cases, it is easier to update of Windows, but it is not necessary.

    1. Windows updates
    2. BIOS,
    3. Environmentally sound management software (Yes, must be updated to BIOS).
    4. Bottom of basket SAS firmware (also needed),
    5. Controller driver (did you mean driver here? pilot, when it is available, it should be updated before... If current firmware to run 2008R2, new drivers are available through Microsoft Update - if available)
    6. The controller firmware
    7. The hard drive firmware
    8. NIC, DRAC, etc..

    When / if get the support.dell.com site update files, use Packages to update for the format of Microsoft Windows.
