Re: WTB: UltraBay SSD adapter for use in a T43
Search one on eBay. Those things can typically come with normal SATA ports, so you can use a 2.5" regular SATA SSD. Those things may be designed with straight front panel to fit in T60, so you will have that weird bottom sticking out if you use that on a T4x.
Bought one of those but I need it for my T43 motherboard with a broken IDE HDD connector or even bridge.

Re: WTB: UltraBay SSD adapter for use in a T43
You'll need to search for SATA UltraBay's intended for T/R/X/Z6x/p ThinkPad's; see e.g. this post where you will find the relevant Part Numbers (P/N) and /or Field Replacable Unit (FRU) numbers, being 26R9246 and 26R9247 and 40Y8725. Try search on eBay for e.g. "T60 ultrabay" and you'll find these from USD 10,- and upwards
I've been using various such ("T60") SATA UltraBay's in my T42's/T42p's for years; no problems at all with 2.5" SATA HDD's.

Re: WTB: UltraBay SSD adapter for use in a T43
I have a genuine Lenovo SATA-adapter with FRU: 45J7902, P/N 45J7901, which will work in both T4x and T6x.
It does have a straight bezel though, as well as the wide "tab" (which can be cut off for use in a T4x).
In as-new condition, $20 incl. shipping in USA.
Payment via PayPal, using option "send money to friends or family".

They do connect with IDE.
Thinkpad4by3's Law of the Universe.
The efficiency of two screens equally sized with equal numbers if pixels are equal. The time spent by a 4:3 user complaining about 16:9 is proportional to the inefficiency working with a 16:9 display, therefore the amount of useful work extracted is equal.
