6 Installing an Additional Processor

Introduction

The HP NetServer E 800 ships with at least one processor on the system board
(primary processor socket – CPU 1) and the voltage regulator modules (VRMs)
are embedded in the system board. Both processor sockets (primary and
secondary) are located on the system board.

Tools Required

The following tools are required to access and install or remove the processors:

Torx T-15 screwdriver

¼-inch flat blade screwdriver

An anti-static service kit (3M 8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit
includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist
strap.

Processor Configuration Guidelines

The HP NetServer E 800 supports a variety of processor speeds with an FSB
(front side bus) speed of 133 MHz. The NetServer supports processor speeds at
667, 733, and 800 MHz. Additional speeds may be supported as each one
becomes available. Consult your HP reseller for details.

NOTE

Some processor speeds listed for this HP NetServer may not be
supported. For the latest support information, visit the HP web

CAUTION

Do not open the new processor's protective bag or remove it
from the bag until you are ready to install it.

Before you remove a processor from the anti-static container,
touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface on the HP
NetServer to discharge static electricity.
