I am a new owner of an ASUS EeeePC 1101HA.
I would like to upgrade the installed 160GB HDD with an SSD one.
However, I 've found it quite difficult to disassemble it, since there is not a seperate cage at the back of it to easily swap it.
Is there a guide or any advice how to do it without damaging it?
I 've tried to unscrew all the screws at the back but with no success. I am afraid there might be other screws underneath the keyboard.
Thanks

thanks a lot patrida!
By the way, is there any way to make the eeepc a bit more silent?
I tried undervolting but the RMclock doesn't recognize the CPU.
Is there any way to replace the CPU fan, or lower the fan speed?
Thanks again. -
I don't personally own one, although I did have a 1201n. Replacing the fan won't make any difference, but maybe there's some dust inside making it work a little harder to force out the hot air. Get some compressed air and clean it out. I don't know how you can lower the speed of the fan as it's controlled by the BIOS which regulates its speed based on temperature sensors. However, since you are taking it apart anyway, why not replace the thermal paste. It may help a bit. OCZ Freeze is good...and cheap.

the netbook is brand new, so there is no dust in it.
I think it's tuned up to raise fan speeds at low temps, without really needing it.
Thanks anyway.
EeePC and HDD upgrade. How?
