Remove the stylus
Turn the Thinkpad upside down
remove all 9 screws with a small phillips screwdriver
Now the dificult part starts
You have to try to remove the bottomplate carefully.
Start at the back and work your way to the front.
Start at the back and work your way to the front.
Start at the back and work your way to the front.
This requires much time and patience.
The most dificult part is the front part.
Inside you will find the battery, the harddrive
the BIOS-battery
Wifi-Card and the small SSD
Remove the 2 screws of the harddrive
After that, pull the harddrive towards the battery
I also remove the small SSD
The harddrive is mounted with 4 screws to the frame
Replace the harddrive
and mount everythink back in place.
There are a few plastic clips and noses which easily bend during the removement of the bottomplate.
you have to bend back the noses and clips back in place with a knife
They are located at the front end of the bottomplate.
After that attach the bottomplate back in place
Finished :-)
