Remove the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi boards and wire

Remove the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi boards and wire
The 60GB HDD PlayStation 3 system contains both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. I can't be 100 percent certain, but most of my research indicates that both are located on these boards. My assumption makes sense, as Sony could easily install different boards for each model PS3.

There are four screws holding the front board in place and one screw holding the rear board in place. Remove all five screws.
