    Wow, glad I stumbled onto this thread. If there is one thing I've learned from my past laptops, it is nice having replacement screws ready for disassembles.

    Yes, there are many laptop screws for sale out there, always handy to have around, I have quite a 'collection' myself gathered over the years, but the link I posted is the complete set for the M17x and M17x R2 except the 4 torx screws that attach the aluminium bottom to the magnesium chassis(where the battery, motherboard, HDDs etc are held).
