WTB: 7mm HDD

#1 Post by ohitsanazn » Fri May 08, 2015 7:26 pm

I just bought a T430 without a HDD, and (to my surprise) it needs a 7mm hard drive -- all I have are 9.5mm. Does anyone have a OEM Lenovo HDD they'd be willing to sell? I don't want to spring for an SSD right now, considering I just bought a HDD.

I would prefer FRUs that came with the T430 but am open to any drive that's 320-500GB, as long as its a Lenovo part. Looking to spend <=$30 if possible, but will consider higher. Thanks.

Why only a Lenovo part? You are gimping yourself.

If I get a Lenovo one it should be covered with my T430s warranty according to Lenovo Support.

Not unless it's the *exact* same FRU that shipped with your system as per parts lookup.

Oh. Guess I'll go ahead and buy one of the ones on eBay then.
