Hi, not sure if it was on the list or not but wanted to know if this is compatible with the T60. I saw somewhere that said t40 and t60 were all compatible. Just wanted to check with you guys.

Don't think so. looks like a different interface for the drive.

T4x and T6x optical drives are compatible, you can swap between models. The only problem is the lower part of the bezel is differrent, the T4x slopes back in while the T60 is straight. I have a T4x HDD adapter being used in a T60.

Please let me know the following:

- will the burner you described work in an X60s Ultrabase 6?
