1 Follow the instructions under “Preventing static electricity discharge” on
page 140.
2 Shut down the notebook, then disconnect the AC adapter and modem
cables.
3 Turn the notebook over, then remove the main battery. For more
information, see “Changing batteries” on page 109.
4 Remove the screw that secures the hard drive to the notebook.
Warning Disconnect the power cord, remove the battery, and
disconnect the modem cable before you remove the hard
drive. Replace the hard drive before you restore power or
reconnect the modem cable.
