Disassembly is very difficult as there are many screws and clips. Even removing the internal harddrive is quite an adventure. This is typical of many compact Toshiba laptops. Unfortunately, the poor board design and many shortcomings such as the harddrive make this model quite avoidable. Keep in mind that compatible 486-era harddrives are very difficult to find in good condition and they are quite small. Modern IDE harddrives and flash storage solutions such as compact flash are entirely incompatible although a 1.3 GB harddrive is reported to be usable. | Disassembly is very difficult as there are many screws and clips.
