Replacing or adding a processor
Warning
Processors and heat sinks may be hot if the computer has been running. Before replacing a processor or heat sink, allow them to cool for several minutes.
The server is compatible with as many as two Intel® Xeon™ DP (Dual Core) 5000 series processors with a 667/1066/1333 MHz front side bus speed and a processor speed of 3.0 MHz or faster. The server automatically detects the processors each time you turn it on. Whenever you install new processors, you should first install the most current version of the BIOS. For instructions, see “Updating the BIOS” on page 54.
Caution
A heat sink must be installed on the processor. Installing a processor without a heat sink could damage the processor.
Important
If you install two processors onto the system board, the processors must be the same speed, revision, core voltage, and bus speed.
To replace a processor:
Important
You must have a processor in the Processor 1 socket, or your server will not start.
If you are upgrading your server from one processor to two, you may need to reconfigure your operating system so it can recognize the additional processor. For instructions, see your operating system’s documentation.
