Which SATA Second Hard Drive Caddy For X6 Tablet Ultrabase?

#1 Post by epu » Sun Feb 08, 2009 9:14 am

I'm on eBay looking to purchase a second hard drive caddy adaptor for my X6Tablet Ultrabase so I can run audio applications from a second hard drive using my X6 Tablet. None of the eBay auctions SPECIFY X6 compatibility. Many of them say "compatible with T4X, T6X and R50". I want to be sure I am purchasing the right one. It has to be SATA.

If anyone knows what to look for, I'd be very grateful of your assistance. Thank you.

The ThinkPad *6* models all use the same Ultrabay Slim HDD carriers, so one for a T6* will work in your X6 ultra base.

Cheers,

Here are the SATA adapters for the T6x/X6x series you want:

Here are the Parallel adapters you do NOT want:

Finally, there are two SATA 2nd HDD adapters: one for the T6x/X6x series, the other for the newer units.
Here is the SATA adapter you do NOT want (look at the picture of the connector on the adapter):

Does Lenovo offer a genuine OEM 2nd HDD caddy for the X60/611? I think all those eBay ones are made by third-party manufacturers, yes?
Lenovo Thinkpad X61 (7675-CTO)
Core2 Duo T8300@2.4GHz
4GB Crucial PC667 DDR2 SODIMM
Hitachi 7K200 200GB 7200RPM
