Has anyone tried using one of these? I think it might work in a 15in screen model T42 R50 or R51 even a T43. This would allow for cheaper hard drives...

I have a DVD containing several PDF files. Mostly e-books. It's a DVD-R Taiyo Yuden disc.

I tried to access it but all I got was crunching sounds...

How can I test my Thinkpad? I was stupid and dropped a rechargeable battery pack (small one that fits in wall socket) and it wouldn't boot at first....
