HP ProLiant DL160 Generation 5 Server Installation Sheet

Figure 5 Installing the hot-plug hard drive assembly
To install a non-hot-plug hard drive disk into the carrier:
1. Loosen four screws from the top part of the carrier (step 1 in figure 6).
2. Put the non-hot-plug hard drive disk into the carrier (step 2 in figure 6).
3. Fasten the HDD to the carrier using the screws that were just loosened (two on
each side) (step 3 in figure 7).

Figure 7 Fastening the non-hot-plug hard drive disk to the carrier
To install a hard drive in the server:
1. Remove the hard drive blank from front of system, if installed.
2. Push the hard drive assembly into the drive bay until it stops (step 1 in figure 8).
3. Fasten the screw with the T-15 wrench provided to secure the hard drive to the
chassis (step 2 in figure 8).

4. Connect the cabling from the HDD backplane to the drive using the cables
provided.
Installing a Memory Module
The following guidelines must be followed when memory modules are being added
or replaced:
• Use only HP supported FBD DDR2 667 MHz modules
• Supported configurations:
o Install in identical pairs in the following order: 1-3, 5-7, 2-4, 6-8
o In 4, 6, and 8 DIMM configurations, it is recommended that the DIMMs in
slots 1-3, 5-7 are identical; DIMMs in slots 2-4, 6-8 are identical.
CAUTION: DIMMs can be damaged by improper handling. Always
use an anti-static wrist strap and grounding mat, and discharge static
electricity before touching DIMMs.
NOTE: Refer to the server hood label for the DIMM locations.
To install a memory module:
1. Align the notch on the bottom edge of the module with the keyed surface of the
DIMM slot and then press the module fully into the slot.
2. Firmly press the holding clips inward to secure the memory module in place.
Figure 9 Installing a memory module
DIMM slots are structured to ensure proper installation. If you insert a DIMM but
it does not fit easily into the slot, you may have inserted it incorrectly. Reverse the
orientation of the DIMM and insert it again.
Installing a Processor
The HP ProLiant DL160 G5 server supports dual Intel Xeon processors.
To install the processor:
1. Insert the processor into the socket, using the key on the processor.
2. Engage the retention plate and the load lever.
Figure 10 Installing a processor
For processor removal, reverse the above installation procedures.
CAUTION: To prevent the heat sink from tilting to one side during
installation/removal, turn each screw a couple of turns, alternatively
between both of them, and then apply the final torque. Do not over tighten
the spring loaded screws to prevent them from breaking off. A maximum
torque of 4.5 inch-lb is set for each screw.
Figure 11 Installing the heat sink assembly
CAUTION: Be sure that the heat sink sits squarely on the processor, or
overheating and damage to the processor may occur.
IMPORTANT: If the heat sink has been removed for any reason, it is
critical that you apply more thermal interface material to the integrated
heat spreader on the processor to ensure proper thermal bonding
between the processor and the heat sink. Clean the contact surface of
both the processor and heat sink with an alcohol pad, then re-apply an
HP-approved thermal interface material before reinstalling the processor.
Use a pattern of five dots when applying the thermal interface material—
one dot in the center, and one dot at each corner.
NOTE: To prevent the heat sink from tilting to one side during installation
removal procedures, use a diagonally opposite pattern (an “X” pattern)
when tightening the four spring-loaded screws. Do not over tighten the
heat sink’s spring-loaded screws to prevent them from breaking off.
