Heatsink

Posted on April 23, 2008 by niteartadmin

I went to the data center today to upgrade memory on one of the Dell’s PowerEdge 1850 servers. When I opened the case I saw that one of the chips on the raid controller lost its heatsink. Little hook that holds heatsink in place detached from the board. This server is still under warranty, but it looked like it is easy fix, so I reached for a soldering iron. Server was back in service in no time.
