LaCie USB2 Desktop Hard Drive Internal Hard Disk Replacement
はじめに
手順 1 に進むThis LaCie external hard drive came in 500GB and 1TB sizes, at least. It must be from before 2010, later replaced by the Neil Poulton design with blue LED lighting towards the bottom (which opens completely differently).
-
-
turn the enclosure upside down
-
there are 2 little openings at the back plate (with the USB and power sockets, at the top of the image) where you can use a flat screwdriver to pry the plate open a little
-
when the edges are loose, you can slide the back plate upwards
-
with the back plate removed, you can push the inner frame holding the hard drive out of the metal enclosure
-
-
-
-
remove the 2 screws that hold the little controller PCB down
-
lift the internal hard drive at the other end (by wiggling the enclosure turned upside down to let it gently come out) just enough so that it can be disconnected from the SATA port
-
be careful to not break the connector on the PCB (which is still fixed to the internal back plate with the USB and power sockets)
-
-
-
slide in the new drive in the same manner, slightly lifting the SATA connector on the PCD
-
reassemble by following the steps backwards
