I've managed to get the case open, but... well,
this
is rather embarassing... I can't quite seem to figure
out how to get the drive itself out.
That's OK, you wouldn't beleive the trouble my PDP-11/44 CPU gave me with
regards to getting the chassis out of the rack! Finally had to transport it
in the rack because no one could figure out how to unrack it. I've run into
some IBM gear that's like that also, it takes half of forever to figure out
how to get into it.
In this case isn't the HD on a sled like the BA23's and BA123's use? I
think there is a tab under the drive, that you push down on then pull the
HD forward. Of course my memory is fuzzy, I've not touched my VS2000 in
several years.

It's tough... there's a couple of screws that may be tough to get to. I
haven't opened mine in a few years, but ISTR I had to at least lift the
MB up in its cage, if not remove it first (being careful not to stress
the drive cables at the back, etc.)

Not in a VS-2000 box. The drive(s) hang(s) on screw-on rails, plates,
really, that themselves fit into slots on the main chassis and screw
down to it. No sled.
