Hey everyone. I've come across 8 OLD circuit boards from an IBM server of the late 80's to early 90's. I was curious if anyone here could help me identify certain components on these boards. I included a picture but I haven't the foggiest idea as to what the silver looking square components are. The are several IC's and a couple EPROM-style chips. And I think the yellow boxes are tantalum capacitors... but not certain. Web searches on my end have turned up zilch except for a couple sites indicating board replacements but no real info on what they do and much less what the components are. Just wanting to properly segregate the parts into collection bins of same/similar for later processing after removing them is all. Thanks!
Oh and yes... I did try to check online for possible selling as whole values to collectors or anyone who happens to need them and there's no apparent market for these old boards so that's why I'm ready to proceed with depopulating them for PM recovery later on.
