  • Broke mounting screw

    While installing the new hard drive to the mounting bracket, I over screwed one of the 4 mounting screws and broke the head off the screw.

    The other 3 are fine and I installed the drive. Everything works.

    Question:

    Is this acceptable or should I get a new screw and install it in the center hole?

    Where do I buy a single screw?

    You could probably get away with only 3, but the screws are standard drive-mounting screws. Metric, I believe.

      Where do I buy such a screw?

        Any hardware store should have it - just bring another to have them match it.
        Been here a long time . . .
