IBM Power6 iSeries Servers

The IBM iSeries Power6 Servers subcategory on DataTechComputer.com offers a selection of refurbished and custom-configured IBM Power Systems from the POWER6 generation, optimized for IBM i workloads in small to medium business environments. These 4U rack-mount or tower-convertible servers deliver solid midrange performance for enterprise applications, light virtualization (PowerVM), databases, ERP, and departmental tasks. POWER6 processors feature dual-core modules with high clock speeds, large L2/L3 cache, and hardware virtualization support. All systems are tested, include IBM i entitlement options (where applicable), and come with a 60-day warranty.

Key Power6 Models & Configurations

  • 8203-E4A (Power 520 Express): Entry-level 4U/tower, single-socket, 4-core or 6-core POWER6 at 4.2–4.7 GHz.
  • 8204-E8A (Power 550 Express): Midrange 4U/tower, single-socket, 4–8 core POWER6 options.
  • 8233-E8B / 8234-EMA (Power 750 Express): 4U rack, single-socket, 4–8 core POWER6/POWER6+.
  • 8202-E4A (Power 720 Express – early): 4U rack/tower, 4-core POWER6 at 4.2 GHz (sometimes listed in Power6 category).
