Problems running Proxmox in Thinksystem SR635

I'm running sr635 with epyc too, I don't have any problem. (kernel 5.13, 2x m2 ssd in raid1, mellanox nic).

maybe is it related to your raid controller ? lsi controller are known to have some regression on 5.15 kernel. (I have see bug with my dell servers).
Which one are you using?
I found that Ubuntu shows compatibility with Lenovo RAID 530-8i and RAID 930-8i-2GB so maybe the RAID 730-8i is not supported (https://ubuntu.com/certified/201908-27316/20.04 LTS)
That's not look good.

Certified for 20.04 LTS which uses kernel 5.4/5.8. PVEs 5.15 kernel is based on the Ubuntu 22.04 and 5.13 on Ubuntu 21.10. So that doesn't guarantee it should work with PVE 7.1/7.2.
Only PVE 6.2 to 6.4 with 5.04 kernels are based on the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS kernel.

Here it is, and looks ok considering 1Gb network:
alright , network looks ok. Move on to disk, compare to your other servers:
yes "aaaaa" | dd iflag=fullblock bs=1024 count=$((1024*1544)) of=file

You can also experiment with adding "oflag=direct"

We had a conversation with our local Lenovo Support. They gonna chanche the RAID controller to test, they said "recently we have some issues about that controller" (no details) so I hope this can be a solution. For today I cannot acces to the server because is in technical service but tomorrow I keep trying to find the answer before the new RAID controller arrives.
Thanks a lot.
