Although the item is called a "7 piece security bit set", note that the T5 & T6 bits are not security bits (i.e. no hole in the center). I wasn't sure which size torx security bit I needed to disassemble a Microsoft mouse so I was hoping for the best when I ordered this, but unfortunately it turns out that the mouse requires a T6 security bit that this set doesn't have.

I got this to disassemble a 200GB hard drive for security reasons prior to throwing it away, and it did the job. One bit (I think it was T8) took off the back cover and also removed the two platters. The drivers and case make a very small package easily tucked away in my toolkit.

For those people who are concerned about preventing their data falling in the hands of others, destroying old hard drives is a must. Unfortunately the screws on the drives are a special type. This toolset lets those people disassemble old drives to destroy the platters for a fraction of the price of other toolsets with the same bits.

Just what the PC doctor needed to operate. The first two bits I needed to pull the cover off the drive were in the set. Good price, compact. They came quickly, too.

I had a bunch of old hard drives that I wanted to disassemble. I'm definitely glad I got this set. I thought I'd only be using the T9 from what I read on forums, but many of the hard drives I've run into have multiple sized torx screws. I've used the T6, T7, T8, and T9 depending on the hard drive. But I've already disassembled 6 hard drives without a problem.

The "security" feature with the whole in the middle never came into play, but they all worked flawlessly with my power tools. Definitely a must have if you're messing with hard drives.

If you like voiding warranties, you need these! I needed some torx bits to disassemble a couple hard drives, and these fit the bill. The steel used appears to be top-quality, and the bits are well-machined. I'm impressed!

I got them very quickly after ordering. I was using them to open up an xbox 360 controller. 5 of the 7 screws I was able to get out but the other 2 were too deep and the screw bits weren't long enough. Overall worth the money.

Both the ontime delivery and product shipment were great. The torx set is just what the doctor ordered, indlucing the socket unit that is included.

Nice price & fast shipping. Exactly as described. I would recommend this if you need small torx drivers. Great for taking apart computer disk drives.

When working on PC's and Servers these are a must and the price is right! Much cheaper than going to a local hardware store to buy and as with most tools they should last forever, unless you lose them like I do from time to time. Highly recommended!
