Remove the two silver T6 Torx screws from the left side of the hard drive (the rubber bumpers remain in the case for the left side of the drive)
You'll need to transfer these screws to your new hard drive if you're changing drives.
If you are installing a new hard drive, we have an OS X install guide to get you up and running.
