MacBook Late 2008 Stock HDD Question

[Kashchei]

I am upgrading my wife's aluminum body late 2008 MacBook for the arrival of Mountain Lion. I've already added 8GB of RAM, but I ran into a problem in replacing the HDD. According to the Apple manual: "There are four (4) mountin?g screws on the side of your hard disk drive. If your replacement drive doesn't include these mounting screws, remove the ones from your old drive and mount them on the replacement drive before you install it."

My question is, what type of screwdriver is needed to remove these screws? It looks like a tiny Allen wrench, but I just wanted a bit more information before I was forced to wander over to the hardware store with the HDD in hand.

You can't go wrong having one of these kits from Radio Shack if you're going to do work on your MacBooks.

I think the screws on the side of the drive are torx- more star shape than hex. But I did the job with the Radio Shack set, so whatever it is is in there.

Dear Berone,

Thank you so much for your help. I found a store with one in stock just down the road, so I'll buy one tomorrow. With my comment about an Allen wrench, you can see that I needed all the help I could get! Thank you again!
