Write Protect Screw

The C330 appears to have a write protect screw. It is underneath the keyboard, covered by a sticker with a Lenovo logo. The sticker is one of those warranty void intrusion detection stickers; it does not come off cleanly and breaks into many small pieces. The image shows the write protect screw to the right of the superimposed postmarketos logo, and the hole it came out of to the left of the logo.
