@1prowheel Here's all you need to know,

And Before you begin:

  • You need a flathead screwdriver.

  • Remove the Pocket Media Drive, if it is present.

  • Turn off the computer, and then disconnect all cables. Disconnect the Ethernet or modem cable before disconnecting the power cord.

  • Transfer the computer to a clear, flat, stable work surface over a non-carpeted floor.

  • HP strongly recommends the use of an anti-static wrist strap and a conductive foam pad when working on the computer.

  • Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are ready to install it.

   WARNING: 

The edges of metal panels can cut skin. Be careful not to slide skin along any interior metal edge of the computer.

   CAUTION: 

This product contains components that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). To reduce the chance of ESD damage, work over a non-carpeted floor, use a static dissipative work surface (such as a conductive foam pad), and wear an ESD wrist strap connected to a grounded surface.
