Look here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-62909

I don't know about the drivers, but you may be able to achieve what you want by going into the BIOS and setting SATA in "Compatibility mode".

1) I have to start a clean install. My SATA drive is empty. I dont have recovery or rescue disk

But I have my 60 Go ATA disc frrom my T41P and the precious SECOND DISC adapter sold by Bill Morrow

What I am doing is ghosting my 60 Go disc ATA to the empty 100Go SATA with the T41P programs

Then I will download all T60P drivers from web site

I should have everything working

2) I have called LENOVO FRANCE today; I have asked the recovery disc. They immediately accepted to send them to me. I should have them in 10 Days.

In fact it is still IBM who is operating LENOVO business in Paris.

Nothing has changed and customer can expect the same level of quality as before (even better)

Thanks LENOVO/IBM

You should have no problem putting the SATA drive in Compatibility mode (use the BIOS setup) and then using Ghost/Acronis to image from your T41p's drive to the T60's drive.
