1. Unlatch the cover release lever on the top cover and remove the memory carrier assembly
cover. See “Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly Cover” (page 13).
NOTE: You do not need to fully remove the top cover to service this component; however,
the top cover release lever must be open. You must remove the memory carrier because it
attaches directly to the processor board.
2. Remove the memory carrier assembly. See “Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly”
(page 21).
3. Press the button located on top of the bezel directly in front of the memory carrier assembly
to release the processor board access door (Figure 12).
CAUTION: The processor board access door opens at a 30 degree angle. Do not force the
door to open to a greater angle. Failure to observe this warning results in damage to server
components.
4. Use the processor board assembly access door as a handle and gently slide the assembly out
of the chassis approximately six inches.
5. Grasp the handholds on the assembly carrier tray with both hands and carefully slide the
assembly out of the chassis (Figure 12).

Replacing the Processor Board Assembly
To replace the processor board assembly, follow these steps:
1. Align the edges of the processor board assembly with the assembly guides in the chassis.
2. Slide the processor board assembly into the chassis until it begins to seat into the socket located
on the midplane board.
3. Push the processor board access door upward until it locks into position.
4. Replace the memory carrier assembly. See “Replacing the Memory Carrier Assembly”
(page 22).
5. Replace the memory carrier assembly cover and latch the top cover release lever closed. See
“Replacing the Memory Carrier Assembly Cover” (page 13).
Installing a Dual-Core Processor
The server uses dual-core processors. Each processor contains two cores that function as separate
processors. Dual-core processors double the processing power of the server while maintaining the
physical dimensions of a single processor.
