Screws were not removable on my machine. So, I would replace the word “remove” with “loosen” to avoid chance for cross-threading. otherwise, these directions were EXCELLENT.

One more thing here is that you have to remove four screws that attach the little metal/plastic sleeve to the actual drive, and then slide the old drive out of the sleeve and the new one back in. Thanks for the guide.
