Replacing or adding a processor

Xeon™ 5100 (Dual Core) or 5300 (Quad Core)
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
“Updating the BIOS” on page 52 .
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 heat sink must be installed on the processor. Installing a processor without a heat
sink could damage the processor.
