Getting into the PC, Replacing Hard Drive


First thing you need to do is disconnect all the components from the back of the PC. WARNING: Static Electricity may damage your hardware, so be careful. Now that all the components are disconnected, we will begin taking the side off. The screws are usually located on the back of the PC, however I have seen them underneath the front cover. Once you have removed the screws, we are going to carefully disconnect the wires from the old Hard Drive. The picture has Sata Hard Drives, so the cables may be different than yours. Also, make sure that when you buy your Hard Drive, your motherboard supports it. Usually Sata or IDE. Now remove the screws from the side of the Hard Drive and remove it. Replace the old Hard Drive, plug your cables into it, and put your PC back together. Now you don't have to pay a fortune for someone to do it for you.
