X32 - Installing Hard Drive Problem

[preid]

Hi

I've recently got a Thinkpad X32. It came with no hard drive, so I bought a Samsung HM160HC. I can't install it though because the plastic bit you screw the hard drive to, won't fit back in the slot.

I searched around for anyone else with a similar problem, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks

If it were me I would just use a small emory board and file the edges down.

Good luck...

You screw the caddy to the drive first, without the plastic cover. Then snap the plastic cover over the screw head. It should all fit.

Good catch...I missed the caddy.
