    • Take the metal bracket away from the hard drive.

    • Disconnect the hard drive cable from the hard drive by applying even pressure on both sides while maintaining a firm grip on the drive itself.

    • This is a bit tricky. Try holding the drive against your body while pushing the cable away from you, or rocking the cable gently from side to side while applying even pressure, or both. If you bend the pins, do your best to straighten them, using the hard drive cable as a guide.

after several assembly and disassemblies I found an SSD solution that works - essentially a PATA/EID to SD card adaptor from ebay (china source) for a few bucks and then I used carbon copy cloner to image and clone the active 6GB disk. My failed attempts involved 32GB SSD from Kingspan - would not boot (with any Jumper setting - very frustrating with a 30min each assemble/disassemble to test!)

James Field - Responder

Hi, thanks for the SD card adapter suggestion. Super helpful. Are you able to provide a link or item name please for the adapter? Thank you.

Dale Sorenson -

James Field, I really wonder how fast an SSD actually is (compared to the initial setup) when using MacOS X 10.1 or so, with a G3 processor.

freed - Responder

Great guide, I followed to the end. I swapped out my drive for a compact flash adapter and a 16GB card. My Clamshell runs absolutely silently. I’m hoping this will extend the battery life, too.

One thing I noticed when putting the display back on is the segment between the joints had to fit on to some hooks on the lower part of the case. That allowed the tiny screw holes between the joints to line up nicely.

Mr Poofy - Responder

Made the mistake of not fitting these hooks on the lower part of the case before finishing disassembly - I was wondering why the clutch cover was so difficult to re-attach, and this was the culprit. Thanks for this comment
