Schritt 1

Working on your device while it is turned on may result in electric shock. Make sure to shut down and unplug your device before you begin.
Flip your device over so the bottom panel is facing up.

There is no realistic risk of electric shock on a laptop. However, is it still advisable to disconnect power plug and battery before opening as there is a real risk of accidental damage by short-circuit.

Schritt 2

The battery is held in by a latch in the front and tabs in the back.
Slide the lock switch left, towards the center of the computer.
Lift up the battery, rotating it up and away from you, then pull it out.
To put the battery back in, line it up with the battery bay and the holes for the tabs. Then let the battery rotate towards you and press down until the latch engages and you hear a click.

Schritt 3

Unscrew one Phillips #1 screw from the back panel.
The screw is on a spring and attached to the panel. It will pop up, but will not separate from the back panel.

Schritt 4

Slide the back panel down and pull it up.

Schritt 5

Static electricity can damage the components of your laptop. Make sure you are wearing an anti-static bracelet before you touch the hard drive.
Using the black tab on the connect and/or a prying tool, lift up to disconnect the black hard drive cable from the green circuit board.
Pull the black cable up and out of the back panel. This will make taking the hard drive out much easier.
