I have just bought an MSI GP72VR Laptop and I screwed up and got the model with only one drive, an SSD. It nagged at me that I didn't get the one with 2 drives. Well I happen to build my own desktops and had a spare 500GB Mushkin SSD hanging around and decided, what the heck. I came here and couldn't find the exact model but this is identical for what I want. I have never seen an access like this where you have to remove 19 screws. So I am very happy that this is on iFixit. I removed the screws and couldn't get the bottom removed as shown, I had to go to the other side and then it came off fairly easily. I used a butter knife for the initial pry and that worked well. They had sent the disk holder with the computer so I had no problem installing and I just set it up in Disk Manager. Tanmay, thank you very much for the assist, it is appreciated.
