ML310 Gen8 Screw Tool

I think I'm going mad here but have spent 30 minutes trying to find the star headed tool to remove the screws on the hard drive caddys, am I missing something really obvious or have they forgotten mine?

This will be a T-10/T-15 Torx screwdriver, I'm not sure they would supply one with it? although the microserver has an alan key style one attached on the inside of the door.

With any Hp server in the past its had one attached usually behind the front panel but can't find anything on this.

I'll have a rummage for one

Should be on the side of the media drive cage (DVD drive cage).

Yes I can see where its held now, but alas yes its missing!

Thanks for the pointer!

Also check on the back of the server, all our Gen8 while rack mounted the magic tool is clipped on the back normally near the power supplies

That tool drives me nuts - usually because I've forgotten to bring the torx bits for my screwdriver!

Glad it's not just me

I thought mine was a refurb because of it

My ML110 has it on the side of the media bag in the blue holder

Same holders there on the ML310 but no key

Doesn't a flat head blade fit the screws. I've always used them in the past.
