You pretty much cant go wrong. If you have any old data back it up first.

Open the HDD caddy, unscrew the blue screw and pull the caddy out.

Unscrew four screws keeping the HDD in the caddy, and replace with new HDD.

Plug in and turn on.

I believe on phat's you dont even need the firmware on usb as it's stored on the nand.

There's plenty of video guides on Youtube if your learning visually.
Also if you feel you dont trust them, just watch a few of them and seek out the positve correlations between all the vids to believe that they are the legit way of replacing the Hdd. Remember to back up your old Hdd though, if your wanting to transfer data over to the new Hdd.
