Chapter 2: Installation 2-1 Chapter 2 Installation 2-1 Static-Sensitive Devices Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. T o prevent dam- age to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully . The following measures are generally suf fi cient to protect your equipment from ESD.
2-2 H8DMU+ User's Manual ! 2-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation Installing the Processor (install to the CPU#1 socket fi rst) 1. Begin by removing the cover plate that protects the CPU. Lift the lever on CPU socket #1 until it points straight up.
Chapter 2: Installation 2-3 3. Align pin 1 of the CPU with pin 1 of the socket. Once aligned, carefully place the CPU into the socket. Do not drop the CPU on the socket, move the CPU horizontally or vertically or rub the CPU against the socket or against any pins of the socket, which may damage the CPU and/or the socket .
2-4 H8DMU+ User's Manual Installing the Heatsink The use of active type heatsinks (except for 1U systems) are recommended. Con- nect the heatsink fans to the appropriate fan headers on the serverboard. T o install the heatsinks, please follow the installation instructions included with your heatsink package (not included).
Chapter 2: Installation 2-5 2-3 Mounting the Serverboard into a Chassis All serverboards and motherboards have standard mounting holes to fi t different types of chassis. Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the serverboard and the chassis match.
