Hey everyone, I just got a Dell R540 for my homelab and it's louder than what I would like. I read that you can adjust the fans through ipmi but as I did more research I found out that Dell patched out the commands on iDrac versions newer than 3.30.30.30

โ€‹

So, is it possible to downgrade from version 7.00.00.00 to 3.30.30.30 without bricking my system? Has anyone done this? It is running the latest BIOS as well. (2.19.1)

If noise is a concern, I wouldn't suggest buying data center rack servers.
