HP Pavilion N3350 Hard Drive Replacement

Introduction

If the hard drive in your system failed or you want a larger hard drive (or are upgrading to an SSD), this guide will show you how to access the hard drive for replacement.

==Guide notes==

  • Replacement of the hard drive requires partial disassembly. If you are unsure if you can do the job, have someone who knows how to do it work on it for you.
  • Test the computer before reassembly by only assembling it enough to test for power. If something doesn't work, you will need to tear the whole computer down a second time if you did a complete reassembly.
