Third step: remove the HDD and the grey grilles on the sides

Press the button to remove the HDD Image unavailable (removed by its host) Then you need to remove the grey grilles, use the flat screwdriver to pop out the clips, there are 3 on each side of a grille, so 6 in total. Above all don't force it or you risk breaking the clips :62:

Fourth step: remove the shell.

You have in front of the x360 clips that just come off easily, however for the ones at the back you need to use the flathead screwdriver, by pushing you'll hear a click for each slot, then you'll do a slight twist (turning) to the right or left on the first and last clips, your shell comes off without difficulty, above all don't force it!
If it's having trouble coming off, try again!

Image unavailable (removed by its host) Image unavailable (removed by its host) Fifth step: remove the screws holding the drive

You have 6 screws to remove with the torx 10 key see photo. The bottom shell will no longer be held in place.

Sixth step: take apart the drive.

Once the screws are removed in the previous step, you need to unplug the drive by removing the two connectors. Pull on them, they come off by themselves. Image unavailable (removed by its host) Image unavailable (removed by its host)
Seventh step: identify your drive

See TUTORIAL identify your drive (link to add).

There you go, it will take you no less than 25 minutes to take it apart ^_^ But above all stay calm for each step!
To reassemble just take the Tutorial in reverse :93:

With a beer break I take 8 minutes to smash everything XD

Seriously I'm at over 50 consoles disassembled and I take 2-3 min!
