I have the exact same problem! I just got the Cosmos II 15.6" and have no idea how to open it.

Pressing the button that would usually open the disc drive does nothing! nor is a light shown.

Hello there,

Thank you for your email, I am afraid it does not work like that. To access the HDD bay you will need to do the following.

· Turn off the Laptop.

· Turn laptop over.

· Unscrew the screws for the backplate two in total.

· Slide the backplate off or lift up (depending on size).

· Unscrew the screw at the back of the ODD bay (on the left of the now exposed area, just next to the edge).

· Slide the ODD CADDY out of the chassis.

· Fit the HDD.

· Repeat the above steps in reverse.
