Whoever owns those magic hands, this fantastic tutorial video did the trick for me. A couple extra screw, but exact same interior layout. This helped me remove my old Toshiba 1TB hard drive that was suffering with a ‘short DTS’ error and replaced it with a 1TB SSHD. Thank you sssssoooo much. Liked and Sub’d 😁👍🏽

Thank you! I would have not found some of this groose if it work for this video. Some of this cruise I encountered felt like they were put in with power tools and needed a lot of work to unscrew them but I found them all and was able to successfully get to the hard drive of this laptop. This video was a game changer for me I was not sure how to approach this project and this just walked me right through it step-by-step. Thank you again!

Just upgraded a collegue's laptop with more RAM and swapped out the HDD for a 500GB Crucial SSD - went off without a hitch and this video was invaluable (even if it was a bit disconcerting having to - in my case - use a Swiss Army Knife flat-blade to pop off the keyboard!)

If you only want to take out the keyboard there is one screw to remove under the RAM door marked with a keyboard sign. Use a thin screwdriver to push out the keyboard where the screw was and don't worry the tip of the screwdriver is pushing against the screw boss. Then grab the edge of the portion of displaced keyboard to un-clip the rest of it. No need to prise it out using a thin blade.

Bro prying the front panel (around the keyboard) was the hardest thing ever. It was stuck on something so I couldn't take it all off, so I had to wiggle the hard drive out. Then those ribbon cables are so finicky that I had to reopen everything 3 times to get all them to get plugged in...

for anyone reading this these 3 screws have loctite so are very secure. make sure you use a good screw head that fits well or you will strip them while apply enough force to remove them. I bought a high quality micro screwdriver set from my local hardware store but you can get them online too.
