Thanks iFixit for this great walkthrough. Yes, it worked find. Have a look: http://www.vimeo.com/17134347 ;) Keep on rockin' /Sebastian
Any suggestions for when the rubber track comes out with the hard disk? Short of dismantling the whole thing?
I saw no replies to the "black rubber lip in the slot" comment. What is the fix for that rubber liner track strip coming loose from the inside of the HD enclosure, please?

Thanks for the guide, iFixit! It worked like a cham.
This is a difficult project. It is imperative that you read the entire guide before you proceed. Have a system in place to keep track of the screws so you know what goes where. Budget several hours for this.
