    Has anyone with a GS63VR figured out how to properly remove the bottom panel of the laptop? I was able to get it off and then back on again once with some difficulty, but am hesitant to do it again for fear of snapping any of the tabs off.

    Did it using some thin plastic cards, simultaneously pushing the hidden tabs with another card from the outside to the inside when i feel they block.
    As often it was easier the second time.
    I replaced the sloooow hdd with a used SSD (840 evo).

    Quick addition : the plastic back side lid, below the screen, may slide and be gotten off. That's freeing the tabs at the back.
    Actually the lid got off when i was installing the bottom pannel :)
