Removing a Processor and Heatsink
Use this procedure to remove a processor and its heatsink (the heatsink must be
removed before the processor).
CAUTION
Take the following precautions when removing processors:
• Wear an anti-static wrist strap and use a static-dissipating
work surface or grounding mat connected to the chassis
when handling components.
• Before removing the processor, touch a grounded
unpainted metal surface on the HP Netserver to discharge
static electricity.
1. Remove the air flow guide. See Chapter 2, "Opening and Closing the HP
Netserver."
2. Use a flathead screwdriver or similar tool to unhook the tool latch on the
heatsink. See Figure 6-6.
