Its used on the security shield thing that lock the server's front stuff from access. Actually not a R610, its a .. E01S. whatever.

Hardly theft. Its been pulled from the rack and dumped in the e-waste bin. this is just for recovery of the sleds and stuff. though, i suppose I can just remove the rack ears that the front shield is attached to.

iFixit you can send me a mail package if you want some of the screw samples yourself.

Do you mean a T8H (aka TR8) - a security torx driver with a hole in the centre to accommodate pin in the centre of the screwhead?

by

@cdr_xavier that'll be a IPR08. Wiha Tools has those. I am sure there are others but I have one of their sets so I know for sure. Now, if iFixit is planning on making those? We would need to ask them for sure. @krisrodriguez you think you could forward this to the Product Development Lead for iFixit

I asked for Security PENTALOBE?

The T8 security ifixit already give in pretty much all kits. I have a Mako kit

by

@cdr_xavier - As far as I know only the Torx offers a Security version at the size you are asking about.

While rarely used for consumer tech repairs, pentalobe sizes exist on a scale ranging from 1 to 6. Sizes 3 and 4 are not often used.

@danj found some picture of security pentalobe drivers, up to "very large"size. I put a pic in the question.
