Laptop 15-ay011nr

Is there a hardware manual available for HP Laptop 15-ay011nr?  If not, how is the hard drive replaced?

 

This laptop is quite a departure from my experience with previous HP laptops and servers.  I was able to easily find the hardware manual for every other HP laptop or server I have worked on, not so with 15-ay011nr.  On every other HP laptop I was able to find the back covers to replace memory and hard drive, not so for this laptop.  THere aren't any covers on the back of this laptop.

Thank you very much for your reply.  I also found a potentially useful section on how to backup and restore the OS with a thumb drive. Although I'm not sure why I would want to create a win10 restore disk, I can install Fedora Linux and restore win10 if necessary.  Again, thank you for the link.  Thumbs up will be entered.
