Removing Hard Drive

nuttynut · May 10, 2017

I had a hard drive die on me late last year. I have finally gotten around to replacing it (top one in the photo); however, I haven't been able to figure out how to remove it. I've removed the screws on the left side of the drive, but I can't see a way to access the screws on the opposite side.

You didn't include a pic. Is this a desktop or laptop?

sounds like a desktop.you have to remove the other side cover to access the screws.

Looks like the hard drive cages will slide out. Probably something to do with the lever sticking out since both the upper and lower cage have identical levers. Unplug the drives, push/pull the lever, slide the cage (with drive) out, then unscrew the drive.

Sorry that I forgot the pics. I did remove the other side panel, but access to the drive cages is blocked.
