Use a T8 Torx driver to remove the two 10 mm-long screws securing the back panel to the bottom panel.
Throughout this repair, keep track of each screw and make sure it goes back exactly where it came from.

Slide the bottom panel horizontally toward the back of the console until it comes to a stop.
This slides the clips out of the slots on the plastic case.
Lift straight up and remove the bottom panel from the plastic case.

With the bottom of the Xbox facing you, pull the two bottom-rear corners of the plastic case away from each other.
As you pull the corners apart, slide the back panel towards the bottom of the device. This releases the back panel from the plastic case.

The back panel is permanently attached to the aluminum chassis.
Do not attempt to fully remove the chassis from the plastic case with this technique. You may risk breaking your case.

Pull the bottom-left corner away from the chassis while swinging the chassis away from the plastic case.
You may need to lift the chassis to free it from the clips on the bottom-front of the plastic case during this process.
Remove the plastic case from the chassis.
