hello sir !
this could be a time consuming process due to the compaciticity of your laptop. you need to first uncrew the main base screw then you need to rempve the lower pannels, ou will observe as you proceed further. than you need to unscrew the disk tray and get it out ( for making things easy)
then comes the keyboard. finally you will see a silver block which writes hdd over it
thats the one you need to unplug and you have your hard disk
please accept my answer if it was helpful
thankyou for asking !
