Ferramentas

-
Flip the computer over to access the screws on the bottom.
-
Remove 8 black, 7mm PH0 screws (M2 x L7).
-
Note: Virtually all the other screws for this computer are PH1 screws which may get stripped when using a smaller screwdriver, but these screws require a Philips PH0 driver.

-
Pry up the clips/latches and then remove the lower case. Start at the front (four clips), then sides (three clips each side) and back (four clips) - there is also one clip in the middle of the case.

-
Almost anything that is done with a computer is safer if the battery is disconnected, so it is good to do that now.
-
Disconnect the battery pack cable from the system board using fingernails or a pry bar. Use your fingernails to pull the connector to unplug it. Do not pull the cable. It can be very tight. I used a 3.5 mm flathead screwdriver to carefully push the side plastic edges down towards the battery. Do not knock any of the components on the board.

-
Remove 6 black 4mm PH1 screws (M2 x L4). The lower right screw is close to a magnet that may pull it from where you want it to go - tweezers may be necessary. The Hardware Maintenance Manual does not show the bottom middle screw.

Remove each SSD by pulling it away from the slot.

Note: it may be important to replace the SSDs into the same slot, so label them in some manner - perhaps "T" for the top one and "B" for the bottom one.

Detach the main and auxiliary antenna cable connectors. Note which colour cable is connected to each post - the photographed board has a grey cable connected to the top post (marked as "#1 Aux" with a white triangle on the Wi-Fi card) and a black cable connected to the bottom post (marked as "#2 Main" with a black triangle on the Wi-Fi card).
