To me an FRU is anything I can carry to a jobsite and replace on the spot - could be RAM, hard disk, ribbon cable, modem card, NIC, etc.Pavlov

A FRU can be just about any component of of a computer or computer network that a technician might work on or replace at a jobsite.To learn is life, living is putting to use what you have learned, death is when this process stops!

think of it this way. if a technician is paid x amount of money for a call-out, there are certain things that the customer won't want to see the tech replacing at the higher rate. motherboards for example.A+ Moderator

I'd say any component short of a motherboard and a case.I'm not a complete idiot... some parts are missing.

Traditionally FRUs are things like Power Supplies, Modems, NICs, Floppy Drives, CD-ROM Drives, Graphics Crards, RAM, Cables etc.
Non-FRU were considered Motherboards, CPUs and Hard Drives.
These days however just about everything is considered field replaceable ...Identify basic procedures for adding and removing field replaceable modules.
System board - Power supply - Processor/CPU - Memory - Storage devices - Monitor - Modem - Input devices - Output devices
From another source1.2 - Identify basic procedures for adding and removing field replaceable modules:
System board - Power supply - Processor/CPU - Memory - Storage devices - Monitor - Modem - Input devices - Output devices. Portable system components covering Digital Cameras, Pointing Devices, PC Cards and DC Controllers.
I guess except for the case that covers it
