Make sure you buy a cheap computer toolkit; these usually contain the right size torx drivers that fit the screws holding the PS to the case.

Putting the PS in is the reverse of taking it out so don't drink too many martinis before starting up the job.

It's pretty simple to do - plenty of DIY articles with photos on the web.
Every article I've found on the web says not to do this with a Dell computer..............
