Hi,
I’m tempted to pick up some Lenovo AMD Pro based business desktops, they’re small and cheap and powerful.
Unfortunately I’m finding hugely conflicting information across the internet about DASH which AMD supports and if it works or can even do all I need.
It’s mentioned here in this post by /u/Zghembo
I’ve found 2 businesses who seem to be reviewing remote maangement technology for big businesses I guess.
Alarmingly this line is in there:
“Note that the Lenovo ThinkCentre M75s SFFs didn’t support KVM control”
Then there’s this, similar article.
Page 14 has this
“OOB BIOS & Desktop KVM Remote Control BIOS Only”
Which would indicate you can’t remotely control the machine, only in the bios.
At the end of the day, all I want is to be able to turn on and off a PC remotely and see the console and use it remotely if something goes wrong. This includes using the bios.
This also means remote controlling linux / bsd / not just Windows.
Can AMD DASH do this (I see provision guides which recommend not only Windows but very particular drivers at that?)
Here’s what the Intel solution looks like - once setup, it’s simple.

Thank you, sorry
I’d be interested in finding out too. If you’re interested in the Lenovo ones specifically, you should inquire Lenovo about it. Hopefully one of the representatives would know something about it.
