L3000 same as rp5470

[Sigma]

Hello,

A Sun guy in need of a little help. I believe the L3000 and the rp5470 are pretty much the same box, but do they share the same parts? System baoard, power supplies, hard drives, etc....

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

Yes, the L3000 is the old name of the RP5470.

You can find the part numbers on.

Hi Steve,

Well - Yes & no.
The L3000 topped out at the PA8700 650 MHz CPU I believe, but began life with the PA8600 which topped out at 550 MHz
Whereas the rp5470 today is available with either the PA8700 750MHz or the PA8700+ 875 MHz
So depending on just how old that L3000 is it just might have the older processor which I think needs a different mainboard. The actual model # of the system will indicate just which it is.

My 2 cents,
Jeff
