HP Z2 Mini G4 Workstation Desktop PC

This is a question for @Paul_Tikkanen, with regards to a comment you posted 12+ year ago: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebooks-Archive-Read-Only/How-can-you-brand-a-serial-number-onto-the....  Not really surprisingly, the HP-bizsupport link you listed no longer works.

 

Reason for my question is that a barebone HP Z2 Mini G4 Workstation Desktop PC for sale here: New HP Z2 Mini G4 Workstation Desktop PC - Barebone | eBay, is listed as "No S.T. / S.N.", which sounds like its motherboard needs to be branded -which can only be done by an authorized HP technician as I understand it.

 

I'm eyeballing this particular model for a possible next upgrade project, and it looks like a good deal to me -unless the branding is too much of a hassle.

 

Please advise.

 

Kind Regards,
