external floppy drive for classic Thinkpads [PLEASE LOCK]

#1 Post by pianowizard » Wed Jun 06, 2007 5:45 pm

Up for sale is an external floppy drive for classic Thinkpads such as the 240, 570, 600, and 770. It has been tested to work flawlessly with my 570E. The drive can be taken out of the drive case (see picture below), so I believe it can be used as an internal drive as well. The case+cable has part numbers 05K6187 and 05K5907, and the drive has part numbers 05K8874 and 20L1931. $10 shipped, non-CC PayPal only. Please PM me if interested. Get one today so that you can finally install Windows on your beloved Thinkpad!

The drive, with external case, can also plug into the port replicator for A2x or T2x laptop. The floppy itself fits the UltraSlimBay in the ThinkPad 600 series.

I decided to keep this drive and sold another one for $4 locally. So mods, please lock this thread.

And thanks AlphaKilo for the info!
