iFixit today posted its teardown of the new Xbox One S console from Microsoft. Similar to the Xbox One console, Xbox One S also received the same repairability score of 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair). iFixit noted that only a few tools are required to take the whole console apart, but replacing the hard drive will require voiding your warranty.

Only a few tools are required to take the whole console apart.
Once inside, a clean, no-nonsense modular design allows the drives, fan, heat sink, PSU, wireless board, and front daughterboard to be easily replaced.
Fewer interlocking body panels and a simpler clip arrangement make opening this generation of Xbox easier than its senior.
Replacing the hard drive will require both voiding your warranty and some difficult hackery to make it serviceable.
