Can the EW be transferred to a new Intel server?

The warranty is non-transferable.

If a product is returned and credit is issued, will the corresponding EW be credited or refunded?

If the product and EW are eligible for credit, a credit is given to the distributor at the same time for both the product and the EW. The distributor and reseller manage reseller and customer credits.

If the product is returned for replacement under the standard warranty, does replacing it affect the EW?

The serial number of the replacement product is transferred. The replacement product inherits the standard and EW eligibility dates.
