6.1Installing a second processor
The system board can be upgraded with a second processor. The upgrade kit consists of a processor and a heat sink.
V CAUTION!
Only processors of the same type may be used on the system board. That means the number of the internal processor cores as well as the primary clock and the FSB frequency have to be the same. For dual operation, use a suitable multiprocessor operating system.
ÊOpen the server and remove the fan carrier as described in the chapter "Preparation" on page 27.
