[HELP] Flashing incorrect BIOS (PowerEdge T30)
#1
I recently purchased a Dell PowerEdge T30 Mini Tower Server and discovered after I received it that Dell has intentionally reduced the functionality of the motherboard through BIOS updates because they do not support certain features. I am aware that there are some BIOS upgrade and downgrade tricks that can be used (official BIOS) to enable some features, but it is only a partial solution. For instance, this would allow me to use the onboard M.2 slot (Dell disables this in BIOS revisions later than 1.02) but it still would not allow me to use newer CPUs with the motherboard.

While searching for a solution, I have learned that the motherboard in the PowerEdge T30 Mini Tower Server is the exact same motherboard found in the Precision Tower 3620, but the Precision Tower 3620 BIOS does not suffer from the same BIOS constraints as the T30. I have read success stories of others who have forced the Precision Tower 3620 BIOS onto the T30, but I have no idea how they accomplished it and none appear to be available to help any longer.

I am hoping that someone on here can help me to figure out how to force update the Precision Tower 3620 BIOS onto the PowerEdge T30.


The motherboards use Phoenix BIOS.
