I want to have a look inside. I removed 3 screws from the top back but the case doesn't move. Anyone know how to remove the top? Thanks!

Don't try prying anything!!!!!

You're most of the way there. You'll find (2?) black screws at the edge of bothsides of the unit on the bottom of it too. Once you take those out the top slides back.

Here's a photo of the underside and I see 5 black screws on each side, plus others at the top and bottom. Which are the ones I remove? Thanks!

I believe it's 3 each on the left and right sides at the edge. Not the ones at the very front and back, the middle ones. If you take all 5 out shouldn't hurt anything, just screw them back in later. The 2 times I took this thing apart, I forget about the screws on the bottom. Argggh.
