Yes, no harm in that.  The latches are usually quite flimsy -- it doesn't take much to break one, and unfortunately it's not a part you can easily replace.  
 - Hi, I have upgraded my laptops ssd, I had done it without needing to remove the led strip, but on putting the lid back on it seemed to come out, and I just cannot work out how it goes back. I keep trying to feed it in the slot and clamp it down with the boy that moves, but it doesn't seem to be staying in place. This is what it looks like [IMAGE]   Can anyone please help quick as I want to put it back together. Thanks James
