Thermal Operation and Configuration Requirements
To keep the system operating within supported maximum thermal limits, the system must meet the following operating and configuration
guidelines:
• Ambient in-let temperature cannot exceed 35 ºC and should not remain at this maximum level for long periods of time.
Doing so may affect long term reliability of the system.
st
• DIMM Population on CPU: Install DIMMs the in order; Channels A, and B. Start with 1
DIMM slot (blue) on each channel.
• All hard drive bays must be populated. Hard drive carriers either can be populated with a hard drive or supplied drive blank.
• The air duct must be installed at all times.
• The system top-cover must be installed at all times.

Remove Processor Heatsink
CAUTION: The heatsink has thermal interface material (TIM) on the underside
of it. Use caution so that you do not damage the thermal interface material.
Use gloves to avoid sharp edges.
The heatsink is attached to the server board / processor socket with captive fasteners.
Using a #2 Phillips* screwdriver, loosen the four screws located on the
heatsink corners in a diagonal manner using the following procedure:
Using a #2 Phillips* screwdriver, start with screw 1 and loosen it by
A
giving it two rotations and stop. (IMPORTANT: Do not fully loosen.)
Proceed to screw 2 and loosen it by giving it two rotations and stop.
B
Similarly, loosen screws 3 and 4.
Repeat steps A and B by giving each screw two rotations each time
until all screws are loosened.
