Song Vaio SVF1521P2EB.CEK - Removing HDD

[AndyBuck1]

Hi all,

I am looking to purchase this laptop (Sony Vaio SVF1521P2EB.CEK), but only under the condition I can remove the standard HDD and replace with an SSD.

Could anyone confirm if the standard HDD is removable, i.e. is there an access door?

The user manual confirms the RAM is removable through the access door labelled in the image below (taken from user manual), but does not mention anything about the access door next to the RAM one and what it is for.

Any help would be very much welcomed.

Thanks in advance,

Andy.
