Those are Torx drivers. You may need the 'security' version if the screws have
a pin in the middle (utterly pointless since both types of driver are
publicly available).

Bad sector - the disk has lost the data on some blocks. Thats a
physical disk failure.
what's somewhat weird is that the disk _seemed_ OK (i.e. no errors
that I would notice, nothing in the syslog) and then suddenly the disk
does not respond at all, I tried dd_rescue and it ran for hours (more
than a day) and it rescued absolutely nothing. Is it possible that the
disk surface is OK but the electronics went bad? Is there anything
that can be done if that's the case? (I have another disk, same model).
You probably void your waranty on both drives if you swap the control
board, it may require special tools you don't have, and I have done it
in the past. Can you get to the point where it fails and cool it with a
shot of freon (or whatever is politically correct these days)? May be
thermal, in which case you run it until you back it up, then waranty it.
it does not respond at all (right after I boot up the computer),
doesn't seem to be heat related. It is completely unreadable, I ran
rr_rescue on it for a long time, it didn't read absolutely anything. It
requires a star-shaped screwdriver, are those available somewhere?
Those are Torx drivers. You may need the 'security' version if the screws have
