3. Remove the currently installed hard-disk drive (see Figure 3).
Turn the computer over, and loosen the two captive screws securing the hard-disk drive cover. The screws are held captive in the lip of the
carrier. A spring causes the front edge of the cover to pop up. If the front edge of the cover does not pop up, pull on one of the screws to lift
the front edge.
