I used some strength at this point but after the first time you get used to the amount needed. The metal casing has a black plastic connector for the HD pins and two metal pins which stick to the laptop bay, but I never really touched those, nor did I need to remove the metallized plastic around the drive, which has the silver tab.
Hope that helps...

It helps alot, thanks. I was struggling to remove the pins (screws) at first but I soon managed it and pulled the connector out with ease. Thank you very much.
