Introdução
Upgrade your hard drive for more storage space.
-
Use your thumbs to push the two battery retaining tabs away from the battery.
-
The battery should pop up enough to rotate it toward yourself and lift it out of the lower case.
-
Remove the three 2.3 mm Phillips screws securing the memory cover to the lower case.
-
Lift the memory cover slightly and pull it toward yourself to remove it from the lower case.
-
Remove the following ten screws:
-
Two 14.7 mm shouldered Phillips.
-
Three 12.3 mm Phillips.
-
One 3.8 mm T8 Torx.
-
One 6.8 mm T8 Torx.
-
Three 1.3 mm Phillips.
-
-
Use your fingernails to separate the ZIF cable lock away from its socket. (Move the two brown bits down 1mm)
-
Use the tip of a spudger to slide the trackpad ribbon cable out of its socket.
-
Remove the four 3.4 mm Phillips screws from the PC card side of the PowerBook.
-
Remove the four 3.4 mm Phillips screws from the DVI connector side of the PowerBook.
-
Depress the display latch release button and open your display.
-
Starting near the display, lift the upper case straight up off the lower case, minding any cables that may get caught.
Sometimes the "tags"/"lugs" that are around the edge of the top & bottom frame, be careful not to bend them as when putting back the covers they will not merge. I used a screwdriver to poke through the hole the screw was supposed go in & push against the "inside nut" to let the tag from the top slide down between the 2 tags. The "inside nut" is like the one right next to the ribbon cable as shown in Dia.14. The screws are from Dia. 7&8.
When putting the machine back together (following steps in reverse), make sure the trackpad ribbon cable comes through the underside of the computer — there is an opening that the cable needs to go through and you will want to “thread the needle” with the cable before securing the upper case again.

When putting the keyboard back in, be sure to slip the Z ribbon through the slot so that it can be locked back in. Be sure that it is locked well.
Great guide. All in all, this is pretty easy but I've hit a snag with the hard drive. I have a PowerBook5,6 and a PowerBook5,9.
I want to simply transfer the actual hard drive from my older model to the 17" model. The SSD works fine in my 15" PowerBook but the 17" doesn't see it. It boots to a grey screen and stays there. When I boot from my Leopard install DVD, that works but Disk Utilities doesn't show a hard drive at all. I rechecked cables & attachments.
The 480GB SSD is formatted with Apple Partition Map and OS Extended Journaled. It works fine when I return it to the 15" and the 17" works fine with its IDE drive.
I thought this would be an easy swap. What might I be missing? What is different with the A1139?
Thanks.
Very nicely done, thank you. Would this instruction work for an PowerBook G4 Aluminum 17" 1.33 GHz model as well?
Thanks!
