7-6 Removal and Replacement
Back Processor Card
The back processor cards are processor slots 2 and 3 (HP9000 K2x0/K4x0 and HP3000 959KS/969KS/
979KS) or processor slots 2-5 (HP9000 Kx70).
Removal: Refer to Figure 7-4 (Refer also to Figure 7-5, which shows processor slots 2-5 on HP9000 Kx70
models.)
1. Remove the back processor cover plate (2) by loosening the two captive screws and pulling the cover
plate away. This cover plate has no color stripe. This allows access to processor slots 2 and 3.
The cover plate for processors 4 and 5 (Kx70 only) has a color stripe that is half burgundy and half
violet. Remove this cover plate by loosening the two captive screws and pulling the cover plate away.
