As Nermal just also pointed out, that looks rather like the screw
holding the drive caddy in place.

and in fact, looking that model up on the dell site reveals this:

http://docs.euro.dell.com/docs/systems/dsleest/rr.htm#primary_hard_disk_drive

# Remove the cover.
# Remove the front panel.
# Gently remove the power cable from the drive.
# Remove the hard-drive ribbon cable using the pull tab located on the ribbon.

# Remove the single screw that secures the drive cage to the computer.

# Rotate the cage upward just past a 90-degree angle, and slide the cage toward the top of the computer to release it.
# Support the hard drive with one hand while removing the four screws that connect the hard drive to the drive cage.
# Gently grasp the hard drive at the end with the cable connections and pull it from the drive cage.



Better luck next time.
