Installing Or Replacing A Processor; Installing A Processor - Intel MFS5520VI - Multi-Flex Server Compute Module User Manual

Installing or Replacing a Processor

Caution: Processor must be appropriate: You may damage the compute module if you install an
inappropriate processor.
Caution: ESD and handling processors: Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to
the processor by doing the following: (1) Touch the metal chassis before touching the
processor or compute module. Keep part of your body in contact with the metal chassis to
dissipate the static charge while handling the processor. (2) Avoid moving around
unnecessarily.
Caution: Protective socket cover needs to be removed for proper cooling of the processor; failure to
remove the cover could result in damage to the compute module.

Installing a Processor

To install a processor, follow these steps:
1. Observe the safety and ESD information at the beginning of this manual and in the
