Remove HDR Internal Primary Drive from caddy??

I have the drive in my site. I have removed the IDE cable and the Power Cable. I see the HD is attached to the caddy with two screws (cannot get to them without the removal of the caddy).


How do I get the caddy out?? I removed the 4 screws on the side of the HDR which hold the caddy in place. It barely moves. I need to extract the caddy so I can remove the side screws of the HD


Any clue how I can pull the caddy?

The exploded diagram doesn't help.

Thanks
in advance
Mike

Hi,
There are also some screws on the bottom of the unit as well (2, I believe) that hold the bracket that the internal drive is on in place. In order to get it all out, you will have to disconnect some of the cables that run over the hard drive to the front panel ( be sure to mark them first!, and the little 2 wire cable going to the front panel can be plugged in backwards so keep track of which side the red wire goes to).

Have a blessed day,
Mike
