I often find that - I think it was too old when hp generated online manuals. In general, the disk either comes out from a flap in the bottom/side or you first remove keyboard and it's under the keyboard. keyboard removal varies - sometimes tabs on top/bottom rows , sometimes a few screws on bottom.
