About this board

X280 (Type 20KF 20KE) Laptop (ThinkPad) ex280 — motherboard NM-B521.

The board was manufactured by LCFC for Lenovo. LCFC (Lenovo/Compal) board numbers start with NM-, so you can confirm it on the PCB silkscreen. This listing is for revision 2.0; another revision of the same board can need a different file.

Files listed for this board
  • BIOS (full SPI chip dump, .bin)

Common cases: dead board after an interrupted BIOS update, ME region errors, missing serial number or UUID after a board swap, or a password lock.

Back up the original dump first — it contains machine-specific data (serial, UUID, MAC, ME), and you will want it if anything goes wrong.

Have a tested file for NM-B521? Reply below and help the next technician. Looking for something else? Search all files in the File Finder.
