I have a 450 Sawtooth at work that needs a power supple swap. I was able to unscrew the side screws & the drive bay screws but was still unable to remove the power supply. I notice the hex screws on the back of the unit. Do I need to unscrew these screws? I'm asking since we dont have a hex screwdriver at work & plan to buy some tomorrow.

does anyone have a link that shows how to take apart various PM systems?

any help would be appreciated & thanks
