[porsche222]

Was looking for an external case and ran across this.

was wondering if anybody knows if i can swap the CDRW with a DVDRW instead or maybe even a HD. Essentially i will be getting a cheap external case.

Thanks!

sure you can swap the cd drive with the following

DVD Drive
CDRW Drive
DVDRW Drive
HD Drive
Battery

if you go2 ibms site http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/accessories/th ... index.html type in your machine type and model and it will list all the goodies you can get form IBM and where they go.

Arent the size of those enclosures different than HD enclosures? I always thought those were considered 5.5 enclosures or something, where most HD enclosures are 3.5 inch.

Am I completely mistaken?
