    • Remove the four 8.7mm Phillips #00 screws from the hard drive mounting bracket.

    Additionally, there is a screw beneath the optical drive that attaches to the keyboard. While the laptop is upside down, slide the optical drive completely out, and remove the shallow screw near the lip of the chassis. This should be done prior to the next step of lifting the keyboard with a pry tool.

    • Flip laptop over and open the screen.

    • Wedge some plastic opening tools between the keyboard and case.

    • Work your way around with the plastic opening tools until the keyboard is separate from the case.

    • Do not try to lift the keyboard straight off at this time. There are some ribbon cables that attach the motherboard to the keyboard that need to be removed first.

Unnecessary complication of a simple task. Simply unscrew one screw (on the bottom of the laptop) and pull the drive out of the laptop case.
