Saved my life, would have had no idea what to do without these instructions and would probably have broke something. My new 2tb ssd is working fine

Simon Porter -

Upgraded the Memory to 32GB and the HDD to a 1TB SATA SSD.

Prabodha Elangasinha -

Only issue I ran into was one of the optical drive screws was frozen in, stripped hard, and I had to fall back on Moodys to break it loose. Once done, everything else was cake.

Chuck Brewer -

My ssd is working fine and the hdd has gone bad on mine... have not even opened mine yet but looking at the pics I wonder where the second drive is located?
