Hard disk drive pack

An extra hard disk drive expands the flexibility of your system and allows you to carry your data separately without having to carry the computer.

Use a point size 0 Phillips screwdriver to remove and fasten the screws - the use of an incorrect screwdriver can damage the screw heads.
