Upgrade from T20 to T23?

#1 Post by newyorkpaulie » Tue Oct 03, 2006 6:08 pm

I see a lot of T23 interest.
If I upgrade to one (from my T20) can I use any peripherals such as my extra hard drives, etc.? It's model 2647.

T61's: 6460-08U, 6460-07u, 6457-6DU
T601: 6463-W34
DualBooting Win-10/Mint Rosa

Yes, you can reuse the hard drive, optical drive and possibly the ram.

PC133 RAM only in the T23 Steve, so it's unlikely the RAM will be usable if it's PC100.

If you are lucky, you are already using PC133 sticks on your T20.

You should try to find a T23 with SXGA+ display (1400x1050 pixels). It's so much better than XGA.

Which is why I said "possibly". :wink:

I was feeling verbose and just felt the need to elaborate on the matter a bit Steve. :wink:
