The IBM 00Y8603 is a system board for the System x3550 M4, the 1U two-socket server from IBM’s System x range. The system board carries the processor sockets, the memory slots and the onboard controllers, so replacing it is effectively rebuilding the machine around the existing processors, memory and adapters. A board swap also moves the machine’s identifying data, which means the service processor settings and the machine type and serial number have to be restored afterwards for warranty and firmware purposes. Confirm the server model and the processor generation your machine runs before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies IBM components for ongoing maintenance projects.
