I got my new Hard Drive today and was ready to get the old one out. Its on a laptop and the there are 2 screws located on the bottom holding it in. Well i got them both loose and then removed the one. I proceeded to take out the second but it keeps spinning in place. The head isn't stripped but the screw is to deep in a groove to remove with pliars. Anyone have any suggestions?
Or you could wedge a flathead behind it as much as possible and lever it outwards while unscrewing with another screwdriver. What i normally do with "spinners".

SUCCESS!
I just shoved a thin knife beneath the drive slot and gave it pressure which eventually pushed the screw passed the faulty thread.
