Product Search

IBM Pre-Sales Advisor uses an advanced searching tool. If you enter a specific part number for a component or base unit part, you will be taken directly to a page giving you an overview of that product and either the option to build if it’s a base unit part number or shown systems where that part is compatible. This is the quickest way to locate a product if you know the part number.

On the flip side, if you don’t know exactly what you're looking for, it can be used much like any other search engine; enter a vague term like 160GB – this will predictably return you a list of Hard Disk Drives. Clearly indicating which units are Express Parts and which units are Withdrawn From Marketing. Again this feature is useful as you can easily filter through which parts do not interest you yet still have an overview glance at what is available.
