FS: ThinkPad T43 SATA with 128GB SSD
Posted: Tue Jan 01, 2013 7:18 pm
For sale is my ThinkPad T43. It has the SATA mod applied, with a proper SATA port mounted in the HDD bay. This way a SATA 2.5" drive can be mounted in the normal caddy and inserted normally with no extra disassembly.
With a normal HDD installed, the HDD activity light DOES work. Apparently some have had trouble with this functioning with the SATA mod, but it is surely working here. With the SSD, however, it does not flash.
Things to know:
1.83GHz Pentium M CPU
2GB DDR2 RAM (maxed out)
Radeon X300 GPU
128GB Crucial SSD
2200BG Wi-Fi card (white-list BIOS is installed, however, so you may upgrade)
1024x768 LCD (I installed this because it is 60hz; the 1440x1050 LCDs are all 50hz on these laptops! Gross!)
Absolutely no dark or light spots, no marks on the screen
Both 6-cell battery and ultrabay second battery in green "Good" condition
Keyboard with minimal shine
Plastics all around are in very good condition
Type 2668
On the underside is a key for Windows XP Home, but I do not have the discs. The drive will come blank.
I am asking for $190 within the US. I am open to negotiation/trades.
Here's a picture of the T43 doing activities!
