For IBM leasing clients, IBM Global Financing can help you upgrade your existing machines to the latest IBM technology with in-place upgrades.
Same machine, new processor, lower payments
If you currently lease IBM Power or Storage mid-range or high-end technology through IBM Global Financing, you can upgrade your machines at mid-lease by replacing your existing upgradeable components with IBM’s latest technology; simply swap the old components for new, in the same machine.A technology refresh at mid-lease is the ideal time to upgrade. At this point, you can refinance your remaining obligation over a new term, potentially lower your monthly payments and create budget room to cover the upgrade costs.
The example above shows a mid-lease upgrade of an IBM Power 595 server with POWER6 technology to POWER7™. The new processor provides substantial advancement in performance, energy-saving features and virtualization capability--yet the customer’s new monthly payment is actually 4 percent lower than its current monthly payment.
