Anyone with an idea of how to get the back off a OneTwo L5700 . Have removed 6 visible screws and the stand and have separated the two edges of the case by 1cm but they won't separate completely. I need to replace the hard disk

Am looking to see if there is an Acer equivalent but if anyone has any suggestions they would be appreciated.

Solved. The rear cover isn't one piece, with a bit of effort the central part can be removed to access the RAM slots. This also reveals 4 more screws holding the rest of the cover in place.

Inside the 3.5" hard disk is screwed onto the chassis using 3 screws. Unusually there is an earth strap stuck to the disk using tape.
