Product: Pavilion 590-p0044
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a second HDD from my old computer. Can I add it to my HP Pavilion 590-p0044?  And how do I open the case? After removing the one big screw on the middle right, it doesn't seem to have a way to come off.

There should be a little handheld edge next to the screw.

 

Use that to pull the cover to the rear then lift and remove.

Took a bit, but it worked. No extra HDD space. Oh well. I'll just have to buy an enclosure and use a USB 3 port to access it.
