Your computer is equipped with either a 1.8-inch hard drive or a 2.5-inch hard drive. The replacement
procedures vary, depending on computer model.

hard drive while the computer is on, in the Sleep state, or in Hibernation.
If you are not sure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on by pressing the
power button. Then shut down the computer through the operating system.
