The Duo Manual has the information you need, in spades, and I thorooughly
recommend finding one. There are two holes under the Duo (when it's in)
centre and right side with slotted screws at the bottom needing complete
unfastening (they stay in, but you can hear the threads clicking when you
have them all the way). Then the top will slide toward you about 1/4" and
then it is free to come out after you unfasten all the cables. You need
long cables, and the same cradle as an LCIII etc for the HD. If you are
lucky, the cables etc are still there, although better check for a SCSI
outlet on the back of the motherboard as I thought that the plus didn't
have HD.
