Procedure

1. With the computer on a soft cloth, note the location of the hard drive and how the ﬂex

cable is routed.

2. Remove the 5-mm long Phillips screw at the corner of the hard drive.

3. Warning: If the ﬂex cable connector is pulled up unevenly, some connector pins

could become bent and damaged.

Using even force, pull the looped handle straight up to disconnect the flex cable from

the connector at the side of the hard drive.

Note: When installing the flex cable at the side of the replacement drive, this

connector is labeled "TO MAIN BOARD" on the flex cable.
