from the old hard drive:
• Remove the screw from the case, then pry open the flap. If necessary, use a flat-blade
screwdriver
• Use a flat-blade screwdriver to pry open the snaps at the ends of the case, then open the
connector-side of the case.

Reassembly Notes
Caution
• Do not cover the vent hole in the top surface of the hard drive or in the case. If you cover the
hole, the hard drive could fail prematurely.
• If you install a 9.5-mm hard drive in the case, make sure you install the spacer on top of the
drive. If you install an 8.4-mm hard drive, make sure you stick the end spacer on the case and
install the top spacer on top of the drive.
• Pry out the connector corner of the case and insert the external connector and hard drive at the
same time. The connector seats in the lower part of the opening in the case.
• Secure the two tabs on the screw flap by inserting the corner tab last, while prying out the nearby
corner of the case.
• When you install the battery module, be sure the plastic tab on the hard drive case lays folds up
against the front of the case.
