What W500 accessories are compatible with T61p?

#1 Post by eecon » Sat Apr 02, 2011 12:56 am

I know that my T61p's Advanced mini-dock is compatible with the W500 (but not the W510).

Are the T61p ultrabay HDD adapters also compatible? I'm guessing they are not because the W500 can operate at SATA II whereas the T61p was factory crippled to only SATA I.

What about the compatibility of batteries for the 15.4" units?

Thanks.

Batteries are compatible, Ultrabay adapters are not.
