FOVFD: Free T4x "2nd HDD Adapter for Ultrabay Slim" 62P4554

#1 Post by Johan » Tue Mar 10, 2009 3:11 pm

Recently I was looking for a "ThinkPad 2nd Hard Drive Adapter for Ultrabay Slim" for use in a T42 (this adapter has P/N 62P4554), as discussed in the thread FS: Cheap 570/E & 600/E/X UltraSlimBay Second HDD Adapter. Then, by coincidence, the thread Unwanted Bits of Thinkpad stuff popped up a couple of days later, and through an outstandingly friendly and completely unselfish gesture of forum-member jtt3011, I ended up with three (!) absolutely free (!!) "ThinkPad 2nd Hard Drive Adapter for Ultrabay Slim"... and I had even only hoped for/inquired about one?! Now, I needed one, and got that, and I gave the second away, but I am still left with the third one, which I really don't have any present need for. So, the purpose of this thread is to ask if there are anybody (preferably in Europe) who would have any need for the third of these 62P4554's? It is a Chinese copy, is labeled FRU 62P4553 (ASM P/N 62P4552), but has a flat bezel (not the original curved T4x-stylel). It however comes with a genuine IBM-label! :wink: It works fine in my T42's (of course with the PATA HDD's for which it is intended).

So… if anybody want to receive this adapter as a friendly gift from John (jtt3011), please let me know, and it’s your completely free. I will pay the postage.

PS1: IBM's/Lenovo's specs for this 62P4552/62P4553/62P4554 (same thing) can be found in the first above-mentioned thread.

PS2: Now, what do ”FOVFD” in the subject-field stand for?? Well, it is a brand new invention… it means: ”For optional voluntary forum donation! Absolutely no obligation, however; just a free, completely private option! :-)

Nice gesture Johan...I want it! But, I'm in the US. I'm sure you've got pms from our Euro friends by now. If it's available, I'll pay for the postage (but how much?) :D

Johan,

if you still have this item, I'd be more than interested.

I live in Finland, and will pay it forward one way or another if you're able to send this item this way.


Thanks,

-Kimi
