IBM 46K7066 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 46K7066 is a 2-way, 4.2GHz POWER6 processor card built for the 8204-E8A Power 550 server, part of the “Tsubasa”-designated engineering family used across 550-series processor and card assemblies. The 550 sat between the entry-level 520 and the larger 570 in IBM’s POWER6 line-up, aimed at customers needing more processing headroom than a 520 without the 570’s full scale-out capability, and ran AIX, IBM i and Linux workloads through the POWER6 generation. A 2-way card of this clock speed was one of the standard mid-tier configurations IBM offered for the 550, used both in new builds at the time and, now, to repair or extend an existing 550 installation. Tech-Star is UK-based and ships worldwide. Confirm your 8204-E8A is configured for a 2-way, 4.2GHz processor complement before ordering, since POWER6 processor cards are matched to a specific clock speed and core count.
