, peel off the "void warranty if removed" sticker on the side to reveal 2 screws. 
These screws were difficult to remove, so apply firm pressure to them when unscrewing in order to avoid stripping the screws.
Overall this drive is a solid case with an excellent Western Digital SATA 1TB 8MB cache Caviar Greendrive.
The reason for disassembling the drive was to connect another fullsize SATA drive to my laptop. To make life easier, I'll be ordering USB 2.0 to IDE SATA HDD Hard Drive Converter Cable
for future connections :)

Just wanted to say you're damn right on the screws -- I stripped the hell out of one of our drives at work. What the hell kind of stresses did they think this drive was going to be put under?!
Thanks for this, was wondering how to do it. God damn though, those screws are gonna put up a fight aren't they?
The power supply has been flaky and I had to restart it a couple of times. I may just salvage the drive and ditch the case. I hope it's not the drive. Anyone else having issues?
the power supply went out completely and yes i stripped one of the screws even when applying firm pressure is there anything else i need 2 get it apart besides the 2 screws?
Is it really work in this way ?
I pray it can work I am so much excited!
how much does data recovery cost
Okay, I've stripped the screws.. any suggestions?
