Pentium III Installation Insert provides information for installing the Pentium III processor upgrade into your 120Ra-1 system. Read this procedure in its entirety before performing the installation to become familiar with the items in this upgrade and the sequence of steps you will perform.
8. Pull the server out of the rack until the component rail release latches engage. The component rail release latches on either side of the server lock the server onto the slide rails. Figure 1. Opening the Front Bezel 120Ra-1 Pentium III Processor Installation...
See Figure 2. Slide the top cover towards the rear of the server chassis until its tab fasteners unlock. 2. Lift the top cover up and away from the chassis. Figure 2. Removing the Top Cover 120Ra-1 Pentium III Processor Installation 5...
3. Position the processor over its ZIF socket so the processor pins align with the socket holes. Note that one corner of the processor has three pins that should be positioned over the corner of the socket that has the three matching pin holes. See Figure 4, A. 120Ra-1 Pentium III Processor Installation...
