Replacing the hard drive

information, see “Backing up files” on page 217.
2 Follow the instructions under “Preventing static electricity discharge” on
page 234.
3 Turn off your notebook and disconnect the AC adapter and modem and
network cables.
4 Disconnect your notebook from the optional port replicator (see “Using
the Gateway 450 Port Replicator” on page 243).
5 Turn your notebook over so the bottom is facing up.
