The Hard Drive is your main storage place on your laptop. This is responsible for holding everything on your laptop from simple documents to your installed operating system. Also adding a bigger hard drive might speed up your laptop if your current one is full or corrupt

    • Gently remove the battery from the rest of the device.

    "Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds, to ground the system board."

    • Once disconnected from the tape and the connector is free, lift the Hard Drive unit from the rest of the device by grasping each side with thumb and index or middle finger.

    This covers removal, but not replacement. Maybe change the title? Since you also need to pull the caddy and insert the new drive, not to mention clone the drive, this guide isn’t quite complete. When pulling the cover, are there tabs that may break?
