How to remove heatsink Samsung 9100 SSD

@tumanwk we have to see what the screws look like. there are to many aftermarket suppliers and we do not know what this particluar one may have use. Adding images to an existing question

The ones I have seen were P5 (Pentalobe) screws

Thanks for the quick response.

You guessed correctly it's pentalobe, I have to find where I miss placed my iFixIt Pro Tech Kit... Just verified the P2, P5, and P6 should be in my kit online. Now I just need to remember that wonderful location I moved it to, in order for it to be easier to find when needed.

My other kits are older and do not contain this bit style. I think unofficially when Apple started using these screws people referred to them as star bits .. but that didn't work, I figured best to ask the experts here.

Besides the training classes for Apple, (did phone technical support CPU/Computers) I haven't had to use Pentalobe screw bits/driver.
