Remove the disc drive

If your PlayStation doesn't have a disc drive, skip this step.
Use the cutout on the bottom right corner of the disc drive to lift its right edge and disconnect it.
Remove the disc drive.
During reassembly, place the hooks on the left edge of the drive into their cutouts and firmly press the drive into place so the connector on the bottom right corner goes into its socket.
