Replace Hard Drive in PCG-Z1XSP?

Hi,

We have a PCG-Z1XSP here and the HDD is on its last legs, it takes forever to boot and sometimes gives a 'No OS Installed' error.

I'm quite happy to replace the HDD as it's out of warranty, but I haven't a clue how to get to it. I've had the keyboard off and can see the RAM slot, but the HDD seems to be in the lower left corner. Does anyone know of a guide for it?

Thanks in advance.

I think it's a caddy in that model, and the switch is on the side. Correct me if I'm wrong guys

It doesn't seem to be. The only thing even remotely removable is the DVD-RW. I've had it apart as much as I can but I need a longer screwdriver for one last screw,
