[QUOTE="Materialistic, post: 1509124, member: 299929"] I removed the bottom cover for the first time to install my SSD and it turned out my screwdriver was a bit too big and some of the screws began to strip. I'm going to install a secondary hard drive in place of the SuperDrive very soon so I just thought I'd save myself a little time by removing it too while I was at it. Then I started to wonder if those SuperDrive screws served any purpose other than holding the SuperDrive in place and started this thread lol. Since it has been running fine all day now, I'm just going to assume that it's safe to leave the screws out until I get my screwdriver kit from China. Crossing my fingers... [/QUOTE]
