System board configuration
Refer to the following sections for instructions about how to remove or replace the processor, the
memory modules, the expansion cards, and the system battery. Procedures for installing the SAS
controller board, PCI-X riser board, and Lights-Out 100c remote management card option kits are

Processor
The system processor socket supports several Intel processor models. Go to page 97 for the list of
supported processor models and their specifications.
Processor installation guidelines
When configuring the processor, observe the following important guidelines:
• Handle the processor and heat sink with care. Damage to either may prevent the system from
functioning properly.
• Never touch the bottom surface of the processor or the contact pins on the processor socket;
contaminant on these areas can damage the processor.
• Be sure that the server has the most recent ROM version. Failure to flash the ROM before
installing processors can cause system failure.
