W510 Compatible with W520 motherboard?

[LeetDonkey]

Hello

Has anyone tried putting a W520 motherboard in a W510?
The W510 currently has a FRU: 63Y1505 motherboard
I know I'll need to replace the CPU as well, but I need to replace a defective motherboard in a W510, and the price is only slightly higher on the W520 motherboard.
I've looked at pictures of the motherboard and the connectors seem to fit rather nicely.
Any other comments?

Kind regards

You'll need a new cooler too, and the new cooler will only fit the W520 rollcage, so you'll need one of those too.
But who knows if a W520 rollcage fits a W510 chassis?

Thanks for the input

I decided to go with a W510 motherboard, I needed to order it from abroad, so it would be a bit expensive to return if it ended up not being compatible.

Also the main bay hard drive connector is a few MM different between the two. Just enough that the drive will not connect to a W520 motherboard in a W510 bottom base.
