R420 from 2012 : Upgrade CPU
Hello,
I'm sudent, and I just buy 4 old R420 servers, with couple of e5-2430 and 2450.
It seems it's "v1" cpu on 1356 socket.
They works correctly, but I want to max it.
I found the upper cpu for this plateforme : 2470 v2
I found it for 20$ each.
Can I upgrade cpu from V1 to V2 ?
I just upgrade bios and Idrac to the last available versions (2020 approx)
Thank in advance !
(P.S. : the power unit is 550w, so I think there is no pb of consumption).
No Events found!
