Opening an Amiga 500 - which Torx?
« on: January 06, 2009, 07:04:14 PM »
Tomorrow I will be getting an amiga 500 for free which needs floppy drive replacement. I have been told that it has torx screws so its a good idea to buy an approppriate screwdriver.

Anyone knows which bit size I will need?

Cheers


E'Blue

Ok I got 2 x A500s today.

On one of them, ALL SCREWS were torx.

On the other, screws on the outside were normal, inside, torx.

I used torx #10 to unscrew.
