The Proliant ML350 G2 comes standard with an Intel Pentium III processor. However, an

Important:
■
If you install more than one processor, both processors must be the same type and speed.
■
The CPU1 socket must always be populated before the CPU2 socket.

Only install the specific PPM provided in the option kit with your processor.
