Here's a copy of TinkerTry's Disclaimer, exactly as posted below every article: DisclaimerĮmphasis is on home test labs, not production environments. Flashing the wrong BIOS/firmware can cause irreparable damage to the system. Please do not download / upgrade the BIOS/Firmware UNLESS your system has a BIOS/firmware-related issue. For all SuperServer Bundle customers, Wiredzone handles these upgrades for you, along with the DIMM install and 4 hour burn-in test. I'll take one of each, please! First step, update the BIOS and IPMI firmware to the latest release. Note, the Flex ATX E300-8D with the X10SDV-TP8F motherboard has not received a new BIOS, its releases have historically arrived months later, don't own one to test.

Here's the current Supermicro Xeon D-1500 systems with X10SDV motherboards with RJ45 10GbE, in form factors suited for home and small business (single PSU), eligible for these new April 2017 BIOS and March 2017 IPMI releases: May 03 Update 2 - I received unofficial clarification from Supermicro - "The 3.52 Firmware has not yet completed validation on X10SDV platform so for this mainboard it is not an official release." I added "under validation" to article title. I followed the exact upgrade procedures documented below, but getting the video ready to publish will take time. The entire upgrade process was recorded, along with observing these fixes. RAM now recognized at 2400MHz properly, and Firefox is working with iKVM/HTML5. Preliminary, they seem to work well with my ESXi 6.5.0d, and my Samsung 960 EVO M.2 NVMe 1TB and Samsung 960 PRO M.2 NVMe 2TB SSDs, with no disappearance.

I've now TinkerTry'd both of these releases. Looking to ignore release notes and disclaimers/warnings to get right to the downloads and detailed upgrade procedures? Jump below. Posted by Paul Braren on (updated on May 14 2017) in
