T410 & docking stations

#1 Post by JPH » Thu Feb 04, 2010 9:54 am

Does anyone know if the T410 will sit on T6x->T400 docking station 2504 & port replicator 2505? Or an upgrade to T410 also means discarding those docks that I have? The lenovo site doesn't tell me much.

Thx

What happens when ThinkPads die after years of loyal service, do they go to heaven?

From what I've heard, I'm pretty sure the T410 won't fit on the older T6x docking station. I haven't heard of any docking solutions for the T410/T510 either, which is definitely worrisome.

T410 (as well as T510/W510/T410s) uses the Series 3 docking solutions introduced with T400s. It is not compatible with older T60-T400 docks.

Excellent.... thank you for the clarification; I was unsure about that.

This definitely helps me a bit with my being on the fence between the T400 and T410; since I need docking capability this is a great boost up for me deciding for the T410. Thanks!
