    Then, use some Knife or something hard'n'sharp to get between the Connector
    and the HDD slot, try to easy it up carefully from side to side.

    Grab the edges and wiggle strongly from left to right while pulling.

    Those plugs can be bastards to get off sometimes, so persevers with your wiggling.
    Don't use a knife ir sharp object inside your computer, especially if you haven't unplugged it!
    if your font size is this small i'll add you to my ignore list because you're wasting my time, OK?

    Cd tray cover ? Didn't your new dvd drive have one? Or are you trying to change colors ?
