    Hey guys and gals

    I search the forum and could find any information about this but.

    I just bought this laptop and want to upgrade the laptop's hdd. But when i look at the bottom...it's just one panel...I have NO idea how to remove it so i can get to the hard drive... if anyone has this laptop and is able to remove the bottom cover could you assist me?

    Thank you.

    unscrew the one screw on the backplate as far as u can. it won't come out all the way. then try to "open" the blackplate by pulling down towards the palmrest of the laptop. it shuld budge like an inch or so, continue unscrewing the screw until it is entirely out.
