Step 13 — Hard Drive Cable
Use a spudger to flip up the brown plastic tab holding the orange hard drive ribbon in place. The brown tab will rotate up 90 degrees, releasing the ribbon cable.
Make sure you're attempting to free the brown tab closest to the hard drive ribbon and not the black section of the connector.
Step 14
Slide the orange hard drive ribbon cable directly out of its connector. The cable may be attached to the logic board with some adhesive. If the cable doesn't immediately come free, carefully pull up on the cable to loosen the adhesive.
Congratulations! You have now removed your item. To reassemble simply follow the directions in reverse order.
