Recovery CDs - T4x? - drive cloning - WTB slim DVD burner

#4 Post by nichevo » Mon Jul 16, 2007 1:08 am

1) CD recovery sets - Might you have them for the T41p? (2374-ggu)

Are they the same or different for t40, t41, t42, t43, and for p/non-p?

Is it all right to buy or download a copy, as I have my COA and such, or is this a sin/crime/blunder? Last I saw was on eBay for $19.95, as CD or DVD, which makes me suspect non-OEM.

2) While I'm at it...if I put in a 2nd HDD caddy, the caddy is supposed to come with drive clone SW. What is this SW and can it be downloaded or otherwise got?

3) If I run the system utility to make a CD set, can it also make a DVD set? Will it burn an image of the original factory image or of the current config with apps and data (and perhaps with virii too)? Your choice?

4) Like the drive caddy, some DVD burners are offered used or raw w/o SW. Can you download the relevant CD/DVD software from IBM?

By the way, anyone got a DVD burner to sell?


Pardon the stream of consciousness...flame away...just be glad I stopped! :roll:

Believe me I have more questions but will make new threads elsewhere... good night.

Oh yes, another WTB/upgrade question

#6 Post by nichevo » Mon Jul 16, 2007 10:11 am

My T41p has Bluetooth of some sort. , whatever came standard. Do the later BT CDC cards offer an upgrade, and would they fit? If so has anybody got one?
