Ultrabay locking screw

Hey all, this should be a quick question:

Where do you get the little screw that locks the Ultrabay? It is the one that screws in from the bottom and prevents the Ultrabay release latch from moving.

I have found the two screws that come with the T60 (a short stubby one and a long one), but the short one doesn't seem to be big enough...

I tried the short one in my T60 and it works fine. It's just a bit misleading as it does not engage many threads. Also I could see where it would be easy to strip, if one were not careful in the process of inserting it.

Hope this helps. :D

By gosh, you're right -- I had to wiggle the release lever a bit, but it does screw in. Doesn't hold on by much!

Thanks, Arch.

So, any clue as to what the long screw is for?
