IBM 15R8578: Motor Drive Assembly (MDA-W) for zSeries frame cooling, feature code 0159.

The IBM 15R8578 is a Motor Drive Assembly (MDA), variant MDA-W, for IBM zSeries frames, IBM feature code 0159. The MDA family is a cooling component, not a power supply: it houses the motor and control electronics that drive a frame’s blower fans. IBM uses the MDA designation consistently across its zSeries and pSeries lines, with MDA-EZ, MDA-G and MDA-S variants covering related frame generations.

Motor drive assemblies of this kind are fitted in a redundant configuration so that routine maintenance or a single motor failure does not interrupt frame cooling. This is a genuine pull from a decommissioned zSeries frame. Tech-Star, UK-based and shipping worldwide, supplies IBM mainframe components for maintenance and refurbishment projects.
