Removing the Hard Drive
When replacing this drive, transfer the four screws that take the place of drive rails from the old drive
to the new one. There are two screws on each side of the drive.

The guide screws mounted in the front two holes are standard-head screws. The guide screws
mounted in the rear two holes are shoulder-head screws. The drive release latch will not work
properly if the wrong screws are installed in the rear two holes.
To replace the drive, reverse the above procedures.

reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.
CAUTION: Use only 3/16-inch or 5-mm long screws as guide screws. Longer screws can damage the
internal components of the drive.
