Processors
WARNING
If the server has been running, any installed processor and heat sink on
the processor board(s) will be hot. To avoid the possibility of a burn, be
careful when removing or installing server board components that are
located near processors.
CAUTIONS
Processor must be appropriate: You may damage the server if you install a
processor that is inappropriate for your server. Make sure your server can
handle a newer, faster processor (thermal and power considerations). For
exact information about processor interchangeability, contact your customer
service representative or visit the Intel Customer Support website:

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 server board. 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.
