Any laptops that have been designed to easily change between hard drives?

Just like the headline says. I would like to know if there's any laptops on the market which makes it very easy to change hard drive in it. Like a small backcover over/under the harddrive with a few screws or similar?

There are many such laptops/notebooks. Why do you ask?

The only laptop I've ever had where it was hard was a Sony VAIO.
You had to take the *@#& keyboard off to access the drive.

All others were very, very easy.

I have run into some newer cheaper systems that stick the drive under the keyboard and bezel. My aunt got some system, think it was an Acer where they drive was in top right of the system under the touchpad bezel. Thing was as hard to get open without cracking or scratching the case as an iPad also.

My favorite systems to work on are the business class models, they have the best designs usually for working on.

There are plenty of laptops that allows very easy access to the hard drive.

From personal experience, the easiest is the Dell Inspiron 15 7559 (with the GTX 960m). There is basically only one screw that needs to be removed in order to pop the bottom panel off which gives you access to the internals. The newer Dell Inspiron 15 7567 (with the GTX 1050 / GTX 1050Ti) has the same design concept, but I do not have that laptop.
