T60 ultrabay adapter with non-Thinkpad hard drive?

I am trying to use the ultrabay hard drive adapter with a new Seagate hard drive, but the system is not detecting the new hard drive. In the ultrabay HD adapter instruction manual, it says to use only Thinkpad hard drive, but this doesnt seem to make any sense. Anyone know anything about this?
