My brother has a Sony vgn-tx1hp and i would like to remove the HDD due to it blue screening, and now not booting up. From what i can gather the unit should go back to Sony for replacement, but i need to recover some data from the drive for him.

My questions are:
1. Can someone tell me how to get to the drive, as i have had all the screws out and nothing moves much and i dont want to break the case.

2. Does anyone know what the end of the drive looks like ? Is it a normal IDE cable connection? If not how can i cannect this to my desk top PC to recover it.

Thanks for the help.
Stuart
