Removal of hard-drive caddy on insp.8500

[kjellemann]

Heya,

I'm sitting here and have unscrewed all the screws that holds the hard-drive caddy in place. But still it wont go off.

Anyone have any ideas that may help me to get this hard-drive caddy of the mainboard?

Im onto short circuiting the chip beneath the caddy!!


Help would be appreciated

One screw, and caddy straight out

But if the caddy (or Inspiron casing) has warped, due to heat
Then you could wiggle it a litttle, left and right, up and down; until it frees itself.

wiggle refers to the harddrive motion, not yours !
