Step 3  ¶ 

  • Use the transparent orange loop to disconnect the large orange ribbon cable from the hard drive.

  • This is a bit tricky. Try rocking the cable gently from side to side while applying even pressure. If you bend the pins, do your best to straighten them, using the hard drive cable as a guide.

  • If you are installing a new hard drive, we have an OS X install guide to get you up and running.
