when you open your computer you will see that their are about 4-5 diffrent colored cables connected in one spot. then their will be a ribbon cable connected to the left of it. On most computers you will see that the hard drive is located by the CD and DVD drive. After you locate it you will unplug them. it will require some force to take them out. Then if you look to the right side of the drive you will see that it is screwed in so you need to unscrew them. check the left side for screws to and then after that your done. I hope this was helpfull
