Step 3The guts!
Unplug the power and data cables from the harddrive. They are circled in yellow in the first photo.
Next remove the 4 mounting screws from the harddrive mounting bracket. They are circled in red in the second photo.
After removing the harddrive and bracket from the circuit board, flip over the bracket and remove the 4 retaining screws that attach the harddrive to the bracket.
Pop in yer new drive and reverse these last steps. By the way don't forget to re-attach the cables to the drive when re-assembling. It might sound obvious, but guess who (in his excitement) forgot to do this and couldn't figure out why he couldn't record anything!?!
Also this is where you can use the 3 PC screws to re-attach the box cover if you mangled the original security screws.
Almost there...
