IBM - 00Y8375 - Systemboard X3550M4 V2

IBM 00Y8375 Systemboard for System x3550 M4 V2

The IBM 00Y8375 is a replacement systemboard (motherboard) designed specifically for IBM System x3550 M4 V2 rack server platforms. As the core logic board, it provides the primary interconnect for CPU sockets, DIMM channels, onboard controllers, and internal I/O—making it a practical repair option when troubleshooting POST issues, management/controller faults, or board-level failures in production environments.

For maintenance teams and spares holdings, this FRU-style part supports a like-for-like swap to restore service quickly while keeping the existing platform in operation. It is commonly deployed alongside capacity and performance upgrades such as MEMORY and SSD, and can be paired with a compatible RAID CONTROLLER to rebuild or expand internal arrays within the same chassis.

Key Features

Key technical characteristics and compatibility highlights for the IBM 00Y8375 systemboard:

• IBM System x3550 M4 V2 systemboard design to restore full server operation after a motherboard failure.
• Compatible with IBM System x3550 M4 family V2 variants to support like-for-like field replacement in existing racks.
• Dual-processor platform architecture support (CPU support depends on server configuration) to maintain the intended compute design of the x3550 M4 V2.
• Integrated DIMM channel routing to enable correct memory population and performance according to x3550 M4 V2 platform rules.
• Onboard management and internal I/O connectivity to preserve monitoring, alerting, and serviceability functions typical of System x servers.
• Backplane and storage/controller interconnect support to maintain internal drive connectivity when used with compatible cabling and controllers.
• Server-grade power delivery and board-level design to support stable 24/7 rack deployment operation.
• FRU-oriented replacement part to streamline break/fix workflows and lifecycle extension for installed IBM System x environments.

Refurbished Quality and Warranty

This unit is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Refurbished parts are a practical choice to extend the lifecycle of existing infrastructure, reduce electronic waste, and control budgets compared to buying new.

All refurbished hardware from Direct Hardware Supply includes a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives, and tape libraries include a three-month warranty). Extended warranty options are available on request. For additional platform components and related IBM hardware, see IBM.
