The IBM 97P3500 is a 32GB, 633MHz outward-facing memory card book, CCIN 4473, built for the p690 (machine type 7040-681) high-end pSeries server. ‘Outward facing’ describes which side of the system’s memory book bay the card occupies; the p690’s Regatta multi-chip module packaging uses paired inward and outward memory books per slot, and the two positions are not interchangeable, so confirm which position is needed before ordering. This is a Power4-generation server, and genuine memory books like this one remain a routine requirement for restoring full memory capacity or expanding older p690 estates still in production use. Confirm the exact machine type and model this is destined for before ordering, since memory books of this generation are not universally interchangeable across unrelated pSeries families. IBM equipment of this generation remains in service across many established data-centre deployments. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM components to support ongoing server and network maintenance projects. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
