Hi,

7C9XP is the updated mainboard version for T320, V2. Whereas, W7H8C and 7MHYN is version 1 of mainboard.

I do not have any documented information what are the differences between the versions, usually an updated mainboard contains better architecture.

Hello,

wow thanks for the information.

The 7C9XP is the new version for the t320, V2.

in my opinion it should be 100% compatible and i can use the systemboard for the replacement, am i right?

Hi,   If you have obtained DPN# 7C9XP from the existing mainboard that is in the server, I would suggest best to try source for the same mainboard.

Hi,

I do not have the information about the mainboard manufacturing. To my knowledge, it is just an alternative part number. But if you can find the original DPN# 7C9XP, you should continue with replacement.
