Removing the microprocessor and memory expansion tray assembly
To remove the microprocessor and memory expansion tray, complete the following
steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page “Safety” on page vii and
“Installation guidelines” on page 33.
2. Turn off the server and all attached peripheral devices. Disconnect all power
cords; then, disconnect all external cables from the server.
3. If the server has been installed in a rack, slide the server out from the rack
enclosure.
4. Remove the top cover (see “Removing the server top cover” on page 36).
5. If power supply 2 is installed, slide it out of the power-supply bay slightly.
6. Grasp the front handle tray by the blue touch points and rotate the handle all
the way up to disengage the tray from the connectors on the system board.

7. Grasp the tray by both handles, lift it from the server, and set it on a flat
surface to avoid damaging the connector pins on the bottom of the tray.
If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 116.
