W701 Maximum HDD Height?

#1 Post by Carthik » Mon Oct 19, 2015 1:23 am

What is the maximum HDD height for the W701? I'm assuming it's not 7mm, so it must be 9.5mm, 12.5mm, or 15mm.


Thanks,

Apologies for the late intrusion, if the OP is still requiring this information- I can confirm, it's 9.5mm. The W700/W701 both use similar caddy bumpers and similarly dimensioned HDD housings as the smaller Thinkpads, which are all meant to fit 9.5mm drives.
Trying my hardest to collect Thinkpads, but college and being broke kinda gets in the way. However...
