    • Place your laptop on a flat surface with the bottom facing upwards. The HP logo should be facing downwards.

    • Remove this screw using a Philips #0 screwdriver.

    • Place your thumbnail between the disk drive exterior and your laptop's bottom cover.

    • If your nail is not long enough to do this, you can use a prying tool instead.

    • Pull outwards to slide the disk drive out of its slot.

    • Due to how the disk drive's slot is constructed, the drive must be properly aligned to fit back in. It may take a couple attempts to properly align it.
