Subject:        Upgrade paths

I am trying to figure out the upgrade path for a 510.  I think the next
step would be a 600, 620, 640, or 650.  How is the S series different
than the 600 series?  Is the OS enhanced in the S series for file 
server
use?  Are their any hardware differences?  Is there somewhere on the 
IBM
web site that I can look for this information?  I downloaded a couple 
of
PDF files today however, they are just brief overviews of the
information I am looking for.
TIA.

Sounds like a 620 is where you should be headed.
'S' series are optimized for Client Server/Batch performance.

You can review the specs online in the System Handbook manual 
(GA19-5486).
You should be able to locate it from:
