      • Loosen the five Philips screws that secure the panel.

      • The screws do not actually fully remove from the panel. Loosening them as much as you can will be enough to disconnect them from the laptop.

      • Pull the Hard Drive out of its socket.

      • Lift the tab upwards to remove the hard drive.

      • If you cannot pull the hard drive out of its socket, there is a possibility that there is a 4mm Phillips #1 screw securing it. Locate it and remove it before continuing. It is in very close proximity to the black tab.
