I have a LinkStation Pro LS-VL - LS-V3.0TL that has a blinking red light. It seems that I have to replace the drive but I cannot figure out how to open the case. I've found documentation or YouTube videos for other models but not this one. I looked up my serial number on the BuffaloTech site. I'm out of warranty, as I expected. I clicked the link for Replace Defective Drive but the page it takes me to is for a different model. The page I found that explained the error codes (I have three longer flashes, so error E30) says to refer to the page "Hard Drive Replacement Procedure." It would have been nice if there were a link. I can't find that page for this model anywhere.

Thanks in advance for your help.
