That button on the left side ,whats up with that.its connected to the mystery black box?

Were is the battery that works the lights on the knobs?

Mine is working fine, i guss u got a bad unit But thanks for the review

Good, video. Couple things to point out, the yellow rod you have is for manual transfer of power on the transfer switch incase it does not transfer. Your manual will explain that process. The 18" clearance from your house is from the rear of the unit not the sides. Both sides and the front should have 36" inches of unobstructed clearance for maintenance. They universal keys, is the same as the 751 for campers, they are all the same also and not just for 1 make but every make out there, meaning anyone with that 751 key can get into your storage compartments. ie change your locks. Cam locks is pretty basic fix to upgrade. With that said, the safe guarding of the keys, transfer switch lock and the kill switch in the rear of unit are overkill on 90% of installs. If one wanted to sabotage the system they would just bring a screw driver and shut the gas supply off, or turn off the gas shut off and that would kill your generator also. I would also like to say not sure what state your in, but man, over 6K for install is crazy. This will vary from place to place but that's huge! I see they have the genpad, maintenance and battery added but that is still kinda high to me. Ohio is about 3k average for install. Be interesting to see what other areas of the county charge for installs. The kill switch in the back of the unit can be bypassed by unplugging the wires inside the unit and connecting them direct (bypassing) the switch. I believe this was a NEC 2020 code change that required emergency shut down switches outside the generator for units over 15+KW units. I agree that's stupid also. They don't require a kill switch for your homes main power, so why one on a generator...somebody got bored in their cubical at work it sounds like.

Bro, it’s hot garbage, almost all the sprinkler stuff is. If you did get that to work, your water pressure will blow it apart in a month.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Hi, i hve 2 4 sale $800

Just wanted to say it's really nice of you to post a simple guide how to do stuff like this. I suspect the procedure is similar on my 730 with 2.5 drives. I won't replace upgrade it now but it's good to know in the future.

Heads up to anyone just getting one of these: I successfully flashed the RAID controller into HBA/IT mode, making it possible to pass drives directly though, instead of needing to set them up in the hardware RAID controller. Was great for my use case of CEPH on Proxmox.

Mine came preassembled last year and wile moving it this year the right door came off. I was able to reinsert the pegs but the doors are not alighned properly. Still working on it. Great grill though.

Hey, I found your video and what happened with mine is they gave me the wrong instruction booklet, mine was for the natural gas model, and everything was so off. You had the one page open that I needed to let me know how the spacers for the doors went. Your video combined with a few others really helped me out. As far as the space in-between the doors goes, its very very easy to adjust. The longer bolts that come with it can be tightened to close that gap and make it looks nice. It really takes just a few minutes to fix.

If anyone knows about the TPM header for the motherboard. Let me know. It looks like mine is not available on the motherboard.

Is there not a part 2?

why not the 630 you can get one for little as 300€ refurbished, i mean jea there is only a small cpus in in it and maybe 2 ticks of 16gb ram but for a start not bad. ok yea some of them a big surprise what actual is in it. mine cost me only 800€ and i got lucky and got a e5 2699v4 even it was listed as only v3 cpus from 8 to 16 cores and 128 to 256 gb ram. but no metion on every other part. mine was coming with the highest cpus a e5 2699v4 but only with 2 64gb ram modules no drive caddys only blanks, no dvd or cd drive 8 bays. but i had idrac8 enterprise and 2 10gbit ports and 2 25gbit ssfp ports, a h330 raidcontroller, one 10k 1,8tb sas drive in the front with windows server 20 license on a usb3.0 drive in the internal usb port. i was happy with this. i installed ubuntu server instead but for the beginning nice. now i have upgrades the machine i have ditched the 64gb modules and bought 16 32gb modules and bought a full set uf caddys and but another 1.8tb sas drive in it and on a sata 80gb drive is my os. i used it for my homeserver but over the time i shrank my system down now i use a ryzen7 5800g system and was about to sell my r630 but now i discovers stable diffusion for me and noticed the r630 is 20 times faster without a gpu as a ryzen7 5800g wit its internal gpu for this application so a brought it back to life and plan to buy 3 nvidia tesla t4 gpus but 1.5 to 3 grad a piece is heavy. at the moment i rocking a sigle t600 gpu without fan detached only the heatsink and this system is now 50 times faster as the ryzen. and still i am not able to use more then 10% to 20% cpu load with a better gpu this is possible. but i try it first with a second t600 if this works i buy a nvidia tesla t4. and add one if i have the money and the system has the power to keep up with it

Turn the rotisserie burner off and you won’t see that temperature difference. Only use the rotisserie burner if you’re trying to cook something on the top shelf only, or only using the rotisserie burner.

Great video, confirms my thinking to scale/ upgrade as time goes on with the r620. From the Dell website when I got my r620 I noticed esxi 6.5 is max version compatible, and I had issues anytime I tried running 7.x. Is there anything special to get v8 to work? Would it even be worth the hassle to upgrade when I have everything running fine on 6.5 for a few basic homelab projects. Thanks!

Can these be used without having to have a rack? I know some servers can be ran that way and maybe just need some configuration done.

Do you happen to have the latest firmware update iso? I am unable to download and need to update my 3 hosts

subscribed because i also swear and get mad at sheet metal

you never did a video powering it on like you said.

Nice i just picked up one of these

hi, I got a question for you :) I got a deal on an r720 with originally 2.5 bays and the seller is saying its not going to work for my 3.5 drives. Any suggestions I've never touched these type of computers before so I dont know if im missing something obvious. In a normal computer its just a cable i plug it to a 2.5 or 3.5 no fuss but I'm not sure if dell's require an hdd bay . I dont mind frankesteining it a bit and just having mypair of hdd drives sitting there without being secure. Any recommendations?

I would be curious to know what the power consumption is on the R710

I love my T620 because it can stand on its own and doesn’t need as many fans to stay cool. It has less noise and can fit any size pci. Paid $400 plus free shipping for mine and it was brand new with less than 10 hours of runtime on it.

Even once you know how to extract the 3.5 inch HDD blank filler (DP/N 058PNT) it is still a heck of a chore. 😖 Huge thanks for putting this video together.

on the left side of the server is a small vertical slide out tab, right below the power button. That will have your service ID written on it, besides the location on the top that you mentioned. Question: did you put the ESXI on the thumb drive that you made internal or is that the "OS" location where you installed the ESXi and you used an external USB port? I'll have to watch this a third time to see if I've missed you answering that. Thanks for the tutorial. Nice job.

Ubuntu will not work if you don't have a matrox video card or a cpu with integrated video capability.

Laidback and fruity, defo knows his shi.. stuff. Big respeck 🤪

How loud is it?

You think its still worth buying one second hand?

I've got one of these, great virtualization platform. Spec 2x E5-2670 V2 CPUs (10 cores each, 40 threads together), 128GB of ram, 8x 900GB SAS drives and a 2.5" Sate to boot off, runs Proxmox 7. Isn't on all the time, just used as needed. Would I recommend one of these for a homelab, definitely. Incidentally, paid £150 for the server, £56 for 10x used SAS drives, and £40 for a new 1TB Sata drive.

One thing I'd like to point out is the intrusion detection switch on the riser is rather fragile. I have my servers on rails in a rack and I went to push an R710 back in without the lid on and the intrusion switch was sticking up enough that it was sheared off by the server above it. I had to buy a new riser card.

thank you . Very well explained. wonder what kind of graphics card have you got installed on this

Are you shitting me... I been looking all over all day to do this. Ty ty ty.

Why is he talking as if he is talking to himself

go with 13th or 14th gen servers, better to avoid 12th gen servers, almost all the the things were newly designed for 12th gen series, how to identify the generation ? R stands for Rack and T for tower, in 620, 2 stands for 12th generation server, if its 3 then thirteenth gen.

Can I use a Dell PowerEdge R620 motherboard in a Dell PowerEdge R630 8 x 2.5" Bay 1U server chassis? Is there compatibility?

I have a 630 and the only downfall is the iDRAC license is as expensive as buying the iDRAC...

My issue is how loud they are.

If only electricity wouldn't be so expensive... I would love to run everything in my homelab on these...

Using a power drill to loosen and tighten heatsink screws made me cringe.

Thanks for the great video! I just bought one a couple days ago and i bricked the mobo during the bios update. is there a fix i can do beside getting a new motherboard? iDRAC still works but its on the latest firmware and i can’t even get the r620 to boot

Perfect timing to upload this video, Im on the tram right now carring a r620 across the Netherlands , just bought it but haven't opened it, thank you for the preview

definitely subscribing. thank you bro! looking forward to what else you can teach us! im very interested in this.

this was helpful and made me laugh. thanks for the help

Thank you for posting this excellent video. Being new to the Dell710 and trying to work through how to set one up the learning curve has been very steep to date ... but your video helped a lot!! I will watch your other videos with interest so please keep up the great work ... and stay safe. Des from the other side of the world in Australia.

fuckin A

Really helped me when getting my r710 thanks so much. This video made me subscribe to you

Hi ....excellent video. As a home user can I use this software outside of the 60 day trial ?
