Opening the server

CAUTION: You must power down the server and then disconnect the power cords before removing or replacing non-hot-pluggable hard disk drives, DIMMs, or processors.

If necessary, unlock the server with the supplied key.

Installing optical drives

The lower two half-height media bays are shipped with drive bay shields. Remove a shield by pulling it away from the front of the chassis. Figure 10 Removing an optical drive bay shield

Figure 11 Installing an optical drive

Figure 12 Installing a DIMM

Installing memory
Memory installation guidelines are as follows: Use registered and unbuffered DDR3 ECC DIMM. Install DIMMs in identical pairs for best performance. A single DIMM can be installed in DIMM slot 2A.

Installing a processor
For a two-processor system, both processors must be of the same type. To access the processor sockets, remove the air baffle as shown previously.

Table 2 DIMM slot configurations 1.

1D 2A 3E 4B 5F 6C

CAUTION: Failure to completely open the processor locking lever prevents the processor from seating during installation, leading to hardware damage. Open the processor locking lever and the bracket. Do not remove the processor socket cover.

Figure 13 Opening the lever and bracket

: Empty : DIMM installed To access DIMM slots, remove the air baffle as shown in Figure 5.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to DIMMs, use an antistatic wrist strap and grounding mat, and discharge static electricity before touching DIMMs.

If a DIMM does not fit completely or easily into the socket, remove the DIMM, reverse the orientation, and then reinsert it. 2.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the processor remains inside the processor installation tool.
If the processor has separated from the installation tool, carefully reinsert the processor in the tool. Handle the processor by the edges only, and do not touch the bottom of the processor, especially the contact area.

Figure 16 Removing the tool

5. 3. Align the processor installation tool with the socket, and then install the processor. THE PINS ON THE SYSTEM BOARD ARE VERY FRAGILE AND EASILY DAMAGED.

Close the processor socket retaining bracket and the processor locking lever. The processor socket cover is automatically ejected. Remove the cover.

Figure 15 Installing the processor

CAUTION: Be sure to close the processor socket retaining bracket before closing the processor locking lever. The lever should close without resistance. Forcing the lever closed can damage the processor and socket, requiring system board replacement. 6. Install the heatsink.

CAUTION: THE PINS ON THE SYSTEM BOARD ARE VERY FRAGILE AND EASILY DAMAGED. To avoid damage to the system board: Never install or remove a processor without using the processor installation tool. Do not touch the processor socket contacts. Do not tilt or slide the processor when lowering the processor into the socket.

4.

Press the tabs on the processor installation tool to separate it from the processor, and then remove the tool.

NOTE: Ensure that the air flow arrow on top of the heatsink is pointing towards the rear of the chassis.
