Adding or Replacing a Processor

compatible processors for the NSN2U Server.

Use the instructions provided below to add or replace a processor instead of using the

instructions that came with the processor. Before you begin, remove the riser card

assembly and processor air duct from the chassis. For instructions, see “Removing the

Riser Card Assembly” and “Removing the Processor Air Duct”

ESD and Processor Handling Precautions

Be mindful of the following points when handling the processors and sockets:

Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the processor by doing

the following:

— Touch the metal chassis before touching the processor or server board.
— Keep part of your body in contact with the metal chassis to dissipate the

static charge while handling the processor.

— Avoid moving around unnecessarily.
— Use a ground strap attached to the front panel (with the bezel removed.)

When opening a socket, do not touch the gold socket wires.

When unpacking a processor, hold it only at the edges to avoid touching the gold

contacts.
