Removing the HDD Assembly

To remove the HDD:
1. Slide the HDD module plastic cover (1) in the direction shown (Figure 4-3).
2. Remove the two Philips head screws (2) located on the bottom of the notebook computer.
They secure the HDD assembly in the system unit and prevent it from being damaged.
3. Gently remove the HDD from its housing, by pulling on its handle in the direction shown
(3).
________________________ Installation Note _______________________
If the HDD assembly is slide installed upside down, the screws on the assembly
may get caught on some plastic inside the system. To remove the drive slide a
piece of paper (yellow sticky) between the unit and the plastic and slide out the
HDD assembly.
