A lightly magnetised Philips screwdriver is your friend in this
situation. No need to dismantle further.
Just wipe a magnet along the shaft a couple of times and test for
strength on some small screws. Wipe some more for more field strength.
Always worth keeping a spare small Philips and a slot type magnetised
for these fiddly jobs. Makes reassembly easy too.

Subject: [iyonix-support] HD replacement
Sorry to ask such a basic/trivial question. But I'm trying to work out
the easiest way to remove the HD from an Iyonix! Been years since I've
done this so I have forgotten.
Having removed the case I can see the screws that hold the HD in the
cradle. But without more dis-assembly I can predict that one or two on
the 'sheet of metal' side will tinkle down into the guts of the machine
when removed or I try replacing them. So I guess I need to be able to do
some more steps of dis-assembly before undoing the screws that hold the
HD into the HD+CDROM 'cradle'. (Yes, there is a CD Writer above the HD.)
