Lift the board gently - there is only one small connector connecting the board to the hard disk case (around the yellow market space).

On the second image, you can see the board turned over.

Further disassembly would damage the disk. I hoped to find a SATA connector within, but maybe someone knows an alternative board with the same connector.
