2.1.1.2 Processor Installation
Caution:
The processor must be appropriate: If you install a processor that is inappropriate for your server, you may
damage the server board. For a web link to the list of compatible processor(s), see “Additional Information
and Software”.
ESD and Handling Processors: Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the processor by
doing the following:
(1) Touching the metal chassis before touching the processor or server board. Keep part of your body in
contact with the metal chassis to dissipate the static charge while handling the processor.
(2) Avoiding moving around unnecessarily.
1. Unlatch the CPU Load Plate.
