Replacing or adding a processor
Warning
Processors and heat sinks may be hot if
the computer has been running. Before
replacing a processor or heat sink, allow
them to cool for several minutes.
Caution
A heatsink must be installed on the
processor. Installing a processor without
a heatsink could damage the processor.
This server is compatible with as many as two Intel® Xeon™ 5100 series 
processors. The server automatically detects the processors each time you turn 
it on. Whenever you install new processors, you should first install the most 
current version of the BIOS. For instructions, see 
Important
You must have a processor in the
Processor 1 socket, or your server will not
start.
If you are upgrading your server from one
processor to two, you may need to
reconfigure your operating system so it
can recognize the additional processor.
For instructions, see your operating
system’s documentation.
To replace a processor:
 
1
Install the most current BIOS version. For instructions, see 
.
2
Follow the instructions in 
. Make sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power 
cord(s) and all other cables connected to the server.
Important
If you install two processors onto the
system board, the processors must be the
same speed, revision, core voltage, and
bus speed.
3
Follow the instructions in 
.
4
Push down, then pull out and up on the two heat sink retention levers (1) 
and move them out of the way.
Caution
The heat sink has Thermal Interface
Material (TIM) on the bottom. Be careful
not to damage this material when you
remove the heat sink from the processor.
If removing the heat sink also pulls the
processor out of the processor socket, the
processor could be damaged.
5
Remove the heatsink from the processor. If the heatsink sticks to the 
processor, rotate the heatsink slightly to loosen it.
