Remove HP Pavilion dv4 hard drive

This is how I removed my HP Pavilion dv4 hard drive. In the event your computer dies, you can easily save your old data. I bought an inexpensive external hard drive casing on amazon.

Here is the the link for the hard drive enclosure on amazon, if the link brakes just search for "hard drive enclosure" on amazon and its the first hit.

What's the plastic for anyways?

@TheJameziee My best guess is that is shields static electricity.

Thanks. I tried to take my HD out myself last night but didn't want to force it. This video was most helpful.

USB 3.0 one I got was $20 if anyone's looking. NexStar CX.

I should probably wait to see if it works before plugging it...
