I recently had to remove the back cover for this laptop. I did not have the required screw driver so I had to buy one, but the manual does not specify what type of torx screw is used. Does anyone know what type of screwdriver I should buy?
I bought a T7x40 which worked well enough to get the screws loose.

you can just buy screwdriver set for laptop repairing that comes with many different sizes, then you can find the fittest screwdriver by trying one by one, if there is some screw loose, you can put the screwdriver to the loose screw then give super glue to its gap. after that you can easily unscrew it until the glue completely harden.

Not a good answer; should have done better research. HP usually uses T10 on desktops and T8 on laptops (T7 is borderline enough to work). Not downvoting as it's not blatantly wrong, but the lack of research is not a good look.
@nick well, im just trying to help. i dont want to spend time researching what is exactly your laptop screw type. as i said, screwdriver set for laptop repairing usually also comes with different size of T head type screw.
