I have multiple CD RW Thinkpad drives for sale or trade. I will offer these for $16.00 each plus $6.00 for shipping within the US.

I am looking for the metal retaining clips that hold down the video cable to the planer (motherboard) on thinkpads. I am also looking for 60gig plus hard drives and palm rests / bezels for T4* laptops.

I think there are a few different model#'s for these but they all fit the 9.5 MM T4* and the others. Most of the units I have are manufactured in 2005

These are all clean pulls from lease turn ins.

I also have a bunch of broken (cracked)LCD's if anyone is looking for parts

Are they CDRW / DVD ROM combo?

These are CDRW DVD ROM.. they are NOT DVDRW!

They will play DVD's but not record them

Funny how is doesnt show the T42 or T43 on the list. This is a sunset product I know, but I have and I am using one of these in my T42 and T43. I have also sold the last 8 or so T42's with these drives as well.

I sold the balance of the drives (18 of them) to a buyer in California. Sorry for those that I missed on, these went quick because of the good price. I am sorry that I was unable to help everyone on the forum. I may get more down the road,but I am looking to focus on Motherboards going forward.

I have some leads I am working on for used boards in the T40 T42 T43 boards. More news when I get further along in the deal.

Thanks to the buyers here on Thinkpads!
