Laptop hard drive caddy screw removal? Tiny Torx screws?

Recommended Posts

Was going to fit a bigger hard drive in my old laptop tonight, but the original drive has a little metal frame around to hold a connector adaptor. It's held with two tiny Phillips head screws and two even tinier screws that look like Torx heads. I have had a look on Ebay and there are some generic laptop tool kits, but does anyone know where I can buy something that's pretty much sure to fit these tiny Torx fasteners please, as I definitely have nothing like that around the place!? Thanks.
