The hard drive bay is on the bottom of the notebook, there are 2 panels on the bottom of your notebook one is the larger thermal panel which you take off if you want to replace ram or your processor or want to clean the intake fans.
The second and smaller panel(near the front of the notebook there should be a "rubber square" on the top of the panel) is where the hard drive is located, unscrew that panel and remove it then you will be able to remove the hard drive.
Of course before you do any of this make sure your notebook is unplugged and the battery is removed.
