HDD dimensions

#1 Post by Involute » Sun Aug 08, 2010 4:26 pm

I need to upgrade the hard drive in my X61s (Machine Model #: 7668CTO) and I'd like to know the dimensions of the one in there without removing it, or the max dimensions that are acceptable for a replacement, to make sure I get something that fits (thinking of a Seagte Momentus XT, 9.7 mm x 70.1 mm x 100.55 mm). Does anyone know? Haven't been able to find this info on the Lenovo site. Thanks.

Any 2.5" SATA Laptop hard drive will fit, including the Seagte Momentus XT.

hi Involute ,,,

most 'normal' 2.5 SATA II hard drives will work - Critical diamensions = 9.7mm HEIGHT ONLY

I have often used these in most all my TP's including the last X61 Series I had...
I often use this E'tailer ,,,, they never let me know YET in last 7 yrs ,,,! (also great if u messup and wana return something!) nope I dont work for thm ,,,

HINT/TIP = download 'Acronis TRUE IMAGE' demo-free version and will do Eggcellent job at 'copying' your existing HARD Drive to the new one you going to get !!!

good luck
