Removing a microprocessor Complete the following steps to remove a microprocessor. Microprocessor connector Microprocessor Heat sink Heat sink retainer Lever Microprocessor orientation indicator Attention: When you handle ESD-sensitive devices, take precautions to avoid damage from static electricity. For details on handling these devices, see "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 45. 1. Review the safety precautions listed in "Safety information" on page 125. 2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and power cords; then, remove the cover (see "Removing the side cover" on page 46 for details). 3. Remove the support bracket assembly and disconnect the fan cable from the connector (SYSFA3) on the system board. See "Removing the support bracket assembly" on page 49 and "System board internal cable connectors" on page 42 for the location of the fan cable connector. 4. Push down and back on the heat-sink retainer to remove it from the heat sink. 5. Firmly grasp the heat sink and lift it off the microprocessor. Note: Once you remove the heat sink from the microprocessor, you must replace it with a new device. Pull out and lift up the release lever and remove the Chapter 5. Installing options 65
