WTB: 7mm HDD

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.

I have a number of 320gig and 500gig 7mm mechanical drives available. However, none are Lenovo parts. Please PM if interested.

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.
