On most ThinkPads, it's very easy.  For example, on my R31, just remove 
one screw and the drive slides right out.

The easiest one I've ever seen, were on the 760 & 750 series, where you 
just lifted up the keyboard, grabbed the wire loop and pulled the drive 
out.  You could change a drive in seconds.
