If the screw holes don't line up with those on the hard drive, make sure that the two pins that are in the back of the hard drive are properly seated in the holes at the back of the case, above the housing for the second hard drive.

You need only raise the fan enough to lift it off the standoff screw. Removing the standoff screw is not necessary to remove the fan. Lift the ear of the fan nearest the RAM up off the standoff secured to the outer case. Remove the two 11.3 mm T6 Torx screws securing the fan to the logic board near the antenna plate. Remove the bottom cover and set it aside. Tilt the mini enough to allow the bottom cover to fall away from the outer case. You do not need to apply much downward pressure while turning. Rotate the bottom cover counter-clockwise until the white dot painted on the bottom cover is aligned with the ring inscribed on the outer case. Place your thumbs in the depressions cut into the bottom cover.
