    Hi. I'm trying to open my 2004 Vaio to upgrade the drive and memory. Any advice on how to open it? I got the screws out but can't open the case

    Sorry.
    Vaio Extreme PCG-X505CP. The Ultra-thin one. It's Japanese, carbon fiber body. Cylinder battery on the hinge.
    Has tri-wing screws on the bottom.
