Procedure
Step 1. Record the processor identification label.
• If you are replacing a processor and reusing the heat sink, remove the processor identification
label from the heat sink and replace it with the new label that comes with the replacement
processor.
• If you are replacing a heat sink and reusing the processor, remove the processor identification
label from the old heat sink and place it on the new heat sink in the same location.
Note: If you are unable to remove the label and place it on the new heat sink, or if the label is
damaged during transfer, write the processor serial number from the processor identification
label on the new heat sink in the same location as the label would be placed using a permanent
marker.
Step 2. Install the processor in the new carrier.
• If you are replacing the processor and reusing the heat sink, use the new carrier that comes with
the new processor.
• If you are replacing the heat sink and reusing the processor, and if the new heat sink comes with
two processor carriers, make sure to use the same type of carrier as the one you discarded.
Figure 146. Installing a processor carrier
1. Make sure the handle on the carrier is in the closed position.
2.
Align the processor on the new carrier so that the triangular marks align; then, insert the
marked end of the processor into the carrier.
3.
Hold the inserted end of the processor in place; then, pivot the unmarked end of the carrier
down and away from the processor.
4.
Press the processor and secure the unmarked end under the clip on the carrier.
