There are also two screws externally on the rear face either side of the battery that hold the monitor on and pass through this panel, support the screen when you remove these. There are also two screws above the hard drive bay that need to be removed.

What!?! You can simple remove the hard drive by undoing two screws on the bottom of the laptop. Then you can remove the bezel from the laptop by undoing one more screw. It’s detailed in the service manual on the Dell website.

I agree with Rob. It’s been made very easy. Pretty much the same as model E4310 here Dell Latitude E4310 Hard Drive Replacement.
