***SOLD***

For sale is a like-new X200 ultrabase, 43R8781, with CD-RW/DVD Serial Ultrabay Slim drive, FRU 42T2543. I received this system accessory from the Lenovo Outlet with my recently-purchased x200 tablet and have used it once to test its functionality.

There are no flaws whatever--no scratches, dings, dents, gouges or other imperfections. The CDRW/DVD functions as new and flawlessly reads all supported optical discs. Also, the ultrabase's lock mechanism works perfectly--no stickiness, hesitation, or other defects--and two keys are included. All product documentation is also included.

No A/C adapter or other connectivity accessories are included with the ultrabase. This ultrabase and optical drive will ship in original Lenovo packaging.

Price: $130.00 plus shipping to your location.

High-resolution pictures are available upon request by PM.

For comparison, current eBay prices and Google Product search results.

Accepted methods of payment:
PayPal (non-CC; otherwise, +3%--no exceptions), USPS Money Order, Cashier's Check drawn on U.S. bank.

I have positive feedback as a buyer and seller in this forum's fair traders thread.

I know that X6 Ultrabases come in seperate FRU's for tablet vs. non-tablet X61's. Does the X200 Ultrabase also come in different FRU's for tablet vs. non? In other words, can your X200 Ultrabase be used on a non-tablet X200?

Hi there, Harry!

According to this Lenovo page about the X200 ultrabase, it says the following:

The ThinkPad X200 UltraBase snaps easily onto your ThinkPad X200 Series ultraportable or tablet system for portable expansion.

and, elsewhere on the page:

The ThinkPad X200 UltraBase can be used only with ThinkPad X200 Series ultraportable and tablet systems.

Hardware requirements: The ThinkPad® X200 UltraBase is supported on the following ThinkPad X200 Series systems:

Machine
Description Type Model

ThinkPad X200s All All
ThinkPad X200 Tablet All All
ThinkPad X200 All All

So yes, the ultrabase I am selling can be used with any X200 series system.

Hope this helps.

Thank you,
