    Hi all. Can anyone explain how you get at the hard drive
    in the fujitsu p7010? I understand that this tiny
    machine uses standard 2.5" drives so should be upgradeable
    to the fast (e.g. 7200rpm) drives. But it looks like
    a hard job. At least, I can't see anyway to get at the
    drive without pretty serious disassembly of the computer.

    A howto would be greatly appreciated.

    TIA<

    I haven't done it myself, I go the upgrade done through Portable One. It's not as hard as it looks though. If you consult the manual it will show you which screws to remove.

    Hi. Thanks for that, but which manual do you
    mean and where would I get hold of one?
