Hey,
I have upgraded my early 2008 2,1 Xserve with 1x 2,8 GHz Quad Core Xeon with a second same CPU.
This was a few years ago in late 2013 and have never realy used it. Only a few hours.
In late 2016 the trouble started with an issue of CPU B FAN 2 IN spinning at 18 - 19k rpm all the time. Switching with an other fan in the array changed nothing. So these days I started to reuse it as a file server/cloud in my house for me and friends.
Today I read near to the Intel memory controller a info printed on the Mainboard. It looks like Jumpers or connectors to set for differnt CPU configurations. *both CPUs are working fine and are fully recognized.
So now to the main question. What to do with these and do I need to check them after CPU upgrade??
I thought this could be the reason for my CPU B FAN 2 IN problem. If not it may be the logic board for 14 fans.
Thank you for answers.

CPUA | 2 - 3 | 1 - 2 |
CPUB | 1 - 2 | 2 - 3 |
BOTH | 2 - 3 | 2 - 3 |
