4 months ago That's interesting because what you're seeing is what Microsoft themselves are returning from the official Windows Update servers. Legacy Update only proxies it to make sure you can access it again.
If you're on Legacy Update 1.9 or 1.8, the name you see is coming directly from the OS. Otherwise, it's a bunch of logic I wrote to make the best guess as to the brand name. The name displayed doesn't really matter, it's just cosmetic, but it's interesting that it's wrong. You can check yourself what the OS reports with wmic os get caption in cmd.
If you have the time to do so, it would be interesting to see if Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) on a recent Windows Server install finds any updates beyond 2015-07 for Storage Server 2003. If not, maybe Microsoft cut it off early, or those updates were only available for manual install for some reason? Also possible you need to install those updates for the remainder of them to appear.

Windows Storage Server 2003 is an obscure version of SS2003, it was mainly seen on Dell PowerEdge systems, and eventually became lost, I found a copy of it today and uploaded it to the internet archive, but Legacy Update does not properly support this version. It detects the OS as Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP2, and only shows Server 2003 updates up to 07-2015, Storage Server 2003 was supported until 10-2016 according to Microsoft https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-storage-server-2003.
