Is there a video or animation that shows the swapping/replacement of an Ulltrabay device on a T60P?

Are you attempting sarcasm? :eek:

I recall there being some Thinkpad animations, but if that's not your style...

The lighting is so bad on the video I can't tell what they are doing. 8)

@ taichi: If you need to know how to swap/replace an Ulltrabay-device (on a T60p or whatever ThinkPad), and you being an old-timer (w/400+ posts) here on the forum: Did you actually bother to look in the Hardware Maintenance Manual - ThinkPad T60/p (4:3 format LCD types) before asking? Otherwise/alternatively see Lenovo's Hardware Removal & Installation Movie Index - Notebooks.

Also, see Ray's post here; try follow the second link... and remember: Google is your friend! :wink:

Hey, while you're at it - could you find me some videos of how to remove the battery, and also some videos of how to open and close the lid? :wink:

Hey, thanks for the good spiritedness of all you gents' replies. I guess high school never ends.

The reason I asked was because:

1. I've never touched an Ultrabay device before.
2. The first thing I happened to read about Ultrabay had to do with the hybrid or semi hybrid nature of the Ultrabay/Device in the T60 and prior models.

This made it seem a bit more complicated than just swapping the device with the two little levers, which I had already found in my PDF manual before posting. I figured I'd ask my confreres on this great forum before making a mistake. I figured wrong.

The first poster who linked to that Laptop Repair Archive on YouTube actually did something useful. Thanks for that.
