How to open a 1.5 TB Seagate FreeAgent Desk External Hard Drive

I bought two of these on sale at costco for $130, which happens to be the same price as an OEM drive straight from seagate. Basically, you get an enclosure for free. However, I wanted it as an internal drive; many people do this. Only problem - it's not very straightforward on how to get the enclosure open. I searched online and failed to find any tutorials on how to do so. Therefore, I figured it out myself and am putting this video on here for anyone else who would like to know how to do this.
