Lift up at the rear of the case and work your fingers along the sides, freeing the case as you go. Once you have freed the sides, you may need to rock the case up and down to free the front of the upper case. This stage can be quite tricky. Over the DVD reader are 4 tabs set back which pull out vertically.
-
Note that the two small tongues on the left hand front of the upper case may bend while you remove the upper case. When re-installing, you may need to bend them back to fit in the grooves in the lower case.

Remove the two silver T6 Torx screws and black rubber bumpers from the right side of the hard drive.

i found that i needed to "rock" the upper case left to right, not up and down, in order to remove it. and although i was trying to be careful, the keyboard ribbon cable was so tight that the connection popped off when i released the upper lid. took a minute to find the connection on the logic board.
when i was removing the hard drive, for whatever reason, there was no bluetooth board on top of the retaining bracket.
other than that, the directions were fantastic. i'll recommend you to all my friend!
the only sad part is that it turned out the hard drive was not the source of the "rice crispies" noise, which is what sent me on this journey in the first place. i now think it's the right-hand fan. whoo hoo! more maintennance!
thanks again,

Even better than little bags or a sorting tray--get an old egg carton, 12 or 18, and use a Sharpee to mark the step number on each egg holder. That way, bumping the table won't screw up your sorting, and you can easily find the right screws in the right order.
Worked for me exactly as shown! Thank You!
One thing that was not mentioned is if you are upgrading to a larger capacity hard drive from the original, you can clone the original hard drive (if it hasn't crashed) to the new one then do the swap. You can then use the Universal Drive Adapter to format the smaller drive and use it as you wish.
