Installing the center bracket To install the replacement center bracket, complete the following steps. 3.5-inch cage divider 1. Align the center bracket with the screw holes in the top and bottom of the drive bay area, and push the center bracket into the server. 2. Install the top and bottom screws that hold the center bracket in place. 3. Install the hard disk drive backplane (see "Installing the 3.5-inch-drive backplane" on page 77). 4. Install the fan-bracket assembly (see "Installing the fan-bracket assembly" on page 67). 5. Install the cover (see "Installing the cover" on page 40). 6. Slide the server into the rack. 7. Install the hard disk drives (see "Installing a hard disk drive" on page 53). 8. Connect the cables and the power cord. 9. Turn on all attached devices and the server. Removing a microprocessor Attention: v Do not allow the thermal grease on the microprocessor and heat sink to come in contact with anything. Contact with any surface can compromise the thermal grease and the microprocessor socket. v Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during installation or removal can damage the contacts. v Do not touch the microprocessor contacts; handle the microprocessor by the edges only. Contaminants on the microprocessor contacts, such as oil from your skin, can cause connection failures between the contacts and the socket. Chapter 3. Removing and replacing server components 87

Installing
the
center
bracket
To
install
the
replacement
center
bracket,
complete
the
following
steps.
3.5-inch
cage divider
1.
Align
the
center
bracket
with
the
screw
holes
in
the
top
and
bottom
of
the
drive
bay
area,
and
push
the
center
bracket
into
the
server.
2.
Install
the
top
and
bottom
screws
that
hold
the
center
bracket
in
place.
3.
Install
the
hard
disk
drive
backplane
(see
“Installing
the
3.5-inch-drive
backplane”
on
page
77).
4.
Install
the
fan-bracket
assembly
(see
“Installing
the
fan-bracket
assembly”
on
page
67).
5.
Install
the
cover
(see
“Installing
the
cover”
on
page
40).
6.
Slide
the
server
into
the
rack.
7.
Install
the
hard
disk
drives
(see
“Installing
a
hard
disk
drive”
on
page
53).
8.
Connect
the
cables
and
the
power
cord.
9.
Turn
on
all
attached
devices
and
the
server.
Removing
a
microprocessor
Attention:
v
Do
not
allow
the
thermal
grease
on
the
microprocessor
and
heat
sink
to
come
in
contact
with
anything.
Contact
with
any
surface
can
compromise
the
thermal
grease
and
the
microprocessor
socket.
v
Handle
the
microprocessor
carefully.
Dropping
the
microprocessor
during
installation
or
removal
can
damage
the
contacts.
v
Do
not
touch
the
microprocessor
contacts;
handle
the
microprocessor
by
the
edges
only.
Contaminants
on
the
microprocessor
contacts,
such
as
oil
from
your
skin,
can
cause
