Hewlett Packard can go suck the big one. My floppy drive failed, and my being a technician it should be easy to swap, right? Wrong. 4 screws, two one each side. Guess what? They made it impossible to remove the two screws on the other side.. unless you of course want to go ahead and rip out your motherboard 
Well, I flipped out and was pissed as hell. Here's the story (with 20 pictures)
This was me ripping shit out of the floppy drive. I was under the thinking that if I can't remove it externally... maybe I can internally. haha. took me an hour or so to do that.
Yeah.. I was a LITTLE pissed off...
See this screwdriver? Watch me make it fit.
Take that, floppy drive. 
This is the spinning part of your floppy drive that reads the disk.
Me destroying the front, trying to rip off all the metal.
That was a bitch to get out.
This copper thingy was under the reader, and it looks awesome as hell so I kept it lol 
Fuck off, HP!
Shows the damage I've done ;D
All of this:
Shows you what happens to a floppy drive when it pisses me off. Gah! I'm installing a new floppy tomorrow. Hopefully it won't turn out as bad as this did lmfao.
And just to tell you, professionally I would have removed the motherboard and all accessories but
1) I don't have an anti-static wristband here (makes it so you dont fry your pc parts)
2) I'm too damned lazy..
Hope you guys had fun with these pics
