To remove the motherboard
Note: This procedure assumes that you have already performed the procedure “To remove boards and cables from the
motherboard” on page 28.
1 Remove the hard disk drive bracket, with hard disk drive attached (see page 45).
Remove the screw that attaches the bracket to the shelf. Removing the hard disk drive and hard disk drive bracket
provides the clearance necessary for removing the motherboard. You must also detach the hard disk drive power
cable to remove the hard disk drive.
2 Remove the nine mounting screws securing the motherboard to the chassis (for screw locations, see Figure 12 on
page 28).
3 Remove the motherboard from the chassis.
Lift the edge of the motherboard. Make sure that the motherboard connectors clear the chassis while you lift it out
of the chassis. Do not touch the contacts and avoid using excessive force.
