Sorry if this has already been asked; I searched the forums, but didn't find the answer.
I recently removed the HD from a late 2008 aluminum Macbook (MB466ll/a). I stripped the screw from the plastic retaining piece and need a replacement. Does anyone know the specifications of the flat head Phillips screw? Specifically diameter, threads and length. I already checked ifixit with no luck; their kit has almost every screw but the one I need.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Did the non-lazy thing and just went to the hardware store. If anyone else runs into this problem, a flat head Phillips machine screw #1-72 x 1/2" should work.
