IBM 45D9160 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

IBM 45D9160 is recorded as a mechanical assembly, the supplier note reading MECH ASM T510-B. That tells us the part is structural rather than electronic, a chassis, bracket, cage, rail or door assembly of some kind, but not which machine it belongs to or what it does within it. Mechanical parts are made to fit one enclosure, so identifying the machine is the whole job here.

IBM builds its large frame systems, the System z mainframes and the high end Power servers that share their packaging, around a bulk power subsystem rather than around individual power supplies. Mains comes in at the bulk power enclosure, is regulated and controlled there, and is distributed through the frame to converter assemblies at each book and drawer. Blowers, motor drive assemblies and, on the liquid cooled models, refrigeration or water cooling units hold the processor complex in its thermal envelope. Every one of those is a field replaceable unit.
