    Maybe try sliding a table knife between the plastic and the front plate, and see if that gives you a bit more leverage.  Of course be careful not to break the mount.

Having a difficult even posting!

I'm trying to replace my HDDs in my 316. I can;t remove the disk from the mounting bracket. The "nipple" that hold the plactic bracket to the bracket doesn't seem to want to disengage. When I press the tab marked "2: it doesn't seem to work. The plastic holder doesn't want to slide free so I can remove the HHD to replace it,

 

Any ideas?
