How do I remove heatsinks

So I have several SAS->FC bridges bought for just $20/each. My first step after receiving the package was to crack open one of them and see whats inside.
Ok, there are SAS and FC controller chips, 4Gb of DDR2 RAM, and some sort of CPU covered with this heatsink which is likely to be glued to the CPU's IHS. How do I remove it undestructively to identify the CPU as I wonder if this board worthy fiddling with it to try and make mini server (there are also a bunch of 2.5mm pitch pins and unsoldered pads for what I think could be mini pci-e connectors) ?
