Upgrading the system

Certain components of the server are upgradeable such as the drives, 
the CPU, the memory, and the expansion cards.  However, for safety 
purposes, we do not recommend that you perform these upgrades 
yourself.  If you want to replace or upgrade any of these components, 
contact your dealer or a qualified service technician for assistance.

Important:

  Observe the installation precautions described in the 

subsequent section when installing or removing a server 
component.

Installation precautions

Before you install any server component, we recommend that you read 
the following sections.  These sections contain important ESD 
precautions along with preinstallation and post-installation 
instructions.

ESD precautions 

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives, 
expansion boards, and other components.  Always observe the 
following precautions before you install a server component:

1

Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until 
you are ready to install it.

2

Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the 
server before handling components.  If a wrist strap is not 
available, maintain contact with the server throughout any 
procedure requiring ESD protection.

Preinstallation instructions 

Always observe the following before you install any component:

1

Turn off the system and all the peripherals connected to it. 

2

Unplug all cables from the power outlets.
