hello all,
Does anyone know where I can find a reliable and TESTED, WORKING external enclosure for SATA 120gb or greater 2.5" notebook hard drives for the x60s?
I've looked up quite a few but all of them only support up to 100gb.
Thank you for your time.

I have to ask: WHY
Maybe it's true, but I can't imagine why.
I admit I have not researched this.

Phew... I was finally able to find one from a legitimate online reseller.

I will keep you guys updated to see if their "claim" is in fact true....
Thanks!

I see that the link you posted does state: "Max supported: 120GB". I'll have to see if I can find the cause of the limitation later. I am curious about this now.

I guess ,it looks SATA/USB converter chip in this box has a 137GB LBA(IDE sector parameter) limitation.
