X60s hard drive replacement

#1 Post by rogerdean » Thu Mar 06, 2008 12:52 am

Morning folks

I've just bought a second-hand X60s 1702 - can anyone tell me what's the biggest and fastest hard drive I can install?

Cheers

those are the biggest SATA laptop drives newegg sells.


AFAIK there's 400/500's coming soon.

There is currently no drive size limitation.

I suspect that when these larger drives become available they will still work fine.

Keep on ThinkPadding!
