This is a picture howto for opening your DMS to swap the drives out. This is a photo of a DMS cart:

Flip the DMS over and you should see four screws in the back side.
A regular phillips head screwdriver will work to remove the screws.
Take them out and keep them in a near by pile.

Once the screws are out, the back of the DMS should pull right off with ease.
You'll see the drive with the rubber surrounds and the interface adaptor to mate with the cradle and the phatbox.
There is a wide U shaped peice of metal and a larger plastic peice under that which is the eject mechanism for the DMS.

Take the U shaped metal peice and the large plastic peice under it and set them in the back part of the DMS we unscrewed. You should see in this photo that the U shaped metal peice fits in two dents on the back of the DMS.

Once the parts are in the back side of the DMS properly this is what it should look like.
