Microprocessor connector Microprocessorrelease lever 6. Install the microprocessor: a. Touch the static-protective package containing the new microprocessor to any unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the microprocessor from the package. b. Position the microprocessor over the microprocessor socket as shown in the following illustration. Carefully press the microprocessor into the socket. Attention: To avoid bending the pins on the microprocessor, do not use excessive force when pressing it into the socket. Microprocessor Microprocessor orientation indicator Microprocessor connector Microprocessorrelease lever Note: The microprocessor-release lever is on the side of the socket that faces the rear of the server. 7. Close the microprocessor release lever to secure the microprocessor. Attention: v Do not disturb or contaminate the thermal material on the bottom of the new heat sink. Doing so damages its heat-conducting capability and exposes the new microprocessor to overheating. v If you need to remove the heat sink after installing it, note that the thermal material may have formed a strong bond between the heat sink and the microprocessor. Do not force the heat sink and microprocessor apart; doing so can damage the microprocessor pins. Loosening one captive screw fully before loosening the other captive screw helps break the bond between the components without damaging them. 8. Remove the heat sink from its package and remove the cover from the bottom of the heat sink. Ensure that the thermal material is still on the bottom of the Chapter 4. Customer replaceable units 55
