I got mine apart also when the VST drive went bad and I wanted to replace
the drive, but unfortunately the problem was with the drive case and I had
to put the drive in another enclosure to use it. I just mentioned it before
because it was a pain to get it apart and it looked like it had been run
over when I got it back together and the new case I now have the drive in
took about ten min to install the drive in, plus it looked good!
