nc10_hdd_iGetting access to the Samsung NC10's hard drive requires a lot of patience and a little bit of force, but with some effort, you can replace the popular netbook's 2.5-inch SATA hard drive with another of your choosing. All you need are a mini philip's head screwdriver and a replacemenet hard drive.

Before you start taking the NC10 apart, keep in mind that:

  • Removing the hard drive may void your warranty.

  • You'll need to create a backup image of the original hard drive if you plan to keep the NC10's operating system. We recommend Acronis True Image Home backup software, because it's really good at creating absolutely flawless backups that you can restore to a new drive in just a few clicks.

Once you've considered these things, ground yourself to avoid damaging the system with static electricity and then begin.
