Replacement Procedure
1. If the new hard drive is from a different manufacturer than the old one, it may have screws in
different positions. Determine which mounting holes in the bottom case are needed; then, if
necessary, push out the rubber screw-hole covers from the inside of the bottom case. (From
the outside of the computer, insert the rubber covers into the holes that are not needed.)
2. If the new hard drive has screws in different positions from the old one, the insulator sheet
will also need to be adjusted. Compare the location of the screw-holes in the new hard drive
with those in the insulator sheet. If there is no screw at position A, then unfold the flap at
position A, and lay it flat before laying the hard drive down on the insulator. See Figure 23.
3. Holding the new hard drive by its edges, lay it in place. Grasp the right flap of the insulator
and pull to the left to engage the connection between the hard drive and the computer. See
Figure 24 on page 56. If the hard drive’s connectors do not engage the computer’s
connectors, pull the hard drive back out and try again. Then fold the insulator sheet back
over the hard drive.
