Easy to do; I have upgraded my Titanium 15 several times and it last ran from a 320gB HDD very successfully. Then it fell off my sofa just once too often... :-(

Oh well, after nine solid years of totally fault-free service (eat ya heart out Mr. Pee Cee!) it will be good for parts and may live on yet.

Excellent instructions and illustrations

I’m an amateur, and this was easy. Proceeding very deliberately, it took me 30 minutes. If I had to do it again, probably 10 to 15.

Thank you

Beware, Step 4 is missing a crucial piece of information!

There's a little black plastic piece on the right side, secured with two hex screws, that needs to be taken out before lifting the drive.
