4. Carefully wiggle the cover around until it comes free of the back part. The power switch, USB
port, and power connector are not attached to the top cover, but you should still be very careful
not to break them. Eventually the middle post/grapple thing should let go and the cover will
come off completely. Be careful not to drop the drive!
5. Remove the screws and the LED connector.
6. Gently, and very slowly, slide the drive forward away from the SATA connector. The connector
is soldered onto the board, so if it breaks you’ll need to re-solder a lot of tiny connections.
Remember to put the four screws back in when you reassemble the drive, otherwise the
only thing holding it in will be the SATA connector and it will probably break from the
stress!
