      • First, locate the hard drive slot on the under side of the laptop.

      • Unscrew the screws using your Phillips #00 screwdriver.

      • Set the two screws aside so you can screw them in later on when you're finished.

      • This should reveal a small metallic place holder that your hard drive belongs.
