These screws may be hard to access. If you can't insert your screwdriver properly, use a flexible extension to avoid stripping screws or damaging the logic board.

Use a T5 Torx screwdriver to remove the six 5 mm‑long screws securing three of the ports.

Use a T7 Torx screwdriver to remove the two 8 mm‑long standoff screws securing the remaining port.

To align and install a set of ports during reassembly:

Partially tighten all four screws on a set of ports.

Lay your Mac Studio down and plug a cable into each port to ensure proper fit and alignment, adjusting the ports as necessary—the cable should be easy to insert and remove.

With both cables plugged in and the port in position, fully tighten the screws.

Unplug all cables before continuing with reassembly.
