Unscrew the Phillips #00 screw which retains the hard drive in place.

Gently slide the hard drive to the left in order to disengage the SATA connectors.

It may be quite stiff, in which case you can ease the hard drive out of the SATA connectors by inserting a spudger between the hard drive and the connector block.

Lift the drive out of the notebook.
