I've just upgraded my 1215N HDD using this guide. This is very good step by step guide. A WIndows 10 Pro install managed to wreck the pre-installed HDD.
Like Tolidano , I just used a normal flat head screwdriver and a Philips screwdriver to carry out the HDD swap. I'm now in the process of installing Windows 10 Pro on to the new HDD.
Very good guide! I my case i need to remove 2 screws from the battery compartment to remove the keyboard
I also had to remove the two (tiny, but phillips #00) screws from the battery compartment.
I actually went further and removed the motherboard to clean the fan. It wasn't too hard thanks to your guide!
I, too had to remove the battery compartment screws. Other than that, and that I couldn’t get the keyboard cable out, the replacement went flawlessly.
Great stuff, swapped original HD for an SSD. Thank you for this!
