    I have an 8510p and would like to replace the provided CDRW/DVD ROM. Before, I turn the unit over and start unscrewing screws, I wanted to double check to make sure the correct screw(s) is removed. There is a screw with the CD and lock symbol beside it. Is this the one that needs to be loosened to remove the drive? TIA

    Go to the HP website, download the manual and it will have a photo of how to do that...
