Removing a hard drive from a 751n

A client has brought me the above system and wants me to upgrade the HD
(from 40 to 120) - but I cannot see how to remove the old unit - is it
possible? The drives seem to be enclosed in some sort of 'cage', but it's
nothing like the 'cage' enclosing the drives in my Chieftec. There is
something marked 'TAB' which I can press which appears to 'unhook' the hard
drive bay from the one containing the CD-RW/DVD-ROM, but I'm stuck now; I've
undone all the screws I can see, but I can't get at the other side of the
bay to unscrew those - is it even possible, or do I return it to him and say
HPs (well, Pavilions at least) are impossible to upgrade (as far as drives
are concerned, anyway)?
