This guide used to have 8 steps as of 2017-06-19. I have edited out step 6 because it is unnecessary and risks damaging the hard drive. The screws on top of the hard drive should never be taken out outside of specialist situations such as data recovery. Removing the screws along the sides is all that is needed to remove the drive from the metal casing. Do not follow step 6 if there are still 8 steps displayed!
