Step 6.

Piece together the hard drive onto the bottom part of the XCM shell (as shown in pics A and C) by following the arrows in picture B.







Step 7.

Remove the black button and spring from the original hard drive shell.



Step 8.

Insert the black button & spring onto the XCM hard drive shell, as indicated in the picture below. Now secure the XCM shell button on top of it.



Step 9.

Step 10.

Where the arrows indicate on pics A and B, press down at both ends of the hard drive shell to lock it tightly shut.
