7mm SSD too small for my x61s

Hi,
I just bought a new SSD to replace the HDD I had. The SSD works well, but it's currently being held in place by paper, since it was too thin to fit the rubber railings that kept the original HDD in place.
Does anyone know any products that reliably solve this problem?
Or should I just wrap the SSD in duct-tape to make it 2mm thicker? 
Anything I should watch out for?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

polar_foxx,
have you removed the 9.5mm caddy from the original drive and attached it to the 7mm drive, worked for me a treat on an R series ThinkPad still using the original rubber rails.

  • How do I make icons bigger? All icons are way too small for speedy use. no matter what I do they remain too small. Is there a way of getting them the same size as previous versions?

    All icons, such as refresh page, back, forward, stop and home etc; are just too small for comfortable use. For now I am uninstalling Firefox 4 and going back to 3.x. even the zoom page icons are too small.

    "I had read that GarageBand or the Musical Typing there can sometimes not display properly when the resolution is changed."
    Well, did you checked GB after you changed your resolution?
    Which setting did you change to?
    You & I have the same size iMac screen. My resolution setting is 1280x800. Everything fits perfectly in the windows & on desktop including the menu bar.
    All info in my windows are showing. I did not need to adjust my browser font size settings. I am sure you are aware of the browser font size settings. I use FF & the settings are in Preferences>Content.
    In the Finder window you can enlarge the icons & fonts also.

  • All of a sudden the screen on my iMac 10,1 is too small for the image. Can't figure out how to reduce the size of the Finder or any of the Apps.

    All of a sudden the screen is too small for the image. Hard to explain, but in order to see the entire Finder window, I must scroll the image up/down, left/right.
    It's not just the Finder though, all of the apps are affected this way too.
    It's probably got something to do with the fact that I have an HDMI cable running from the Mac to a Vizio 42" TV. It's been running this way just fine for over two months though.
    Any ideas?

    You probably accidently zoomed the screen.  Hold down CNTL while scrolling down with the mouse or trackpad to unzoom.  Cntl - scroll up to zoom.

  • I just bought a new PC and I have re-installed my Adobe Creative Suite Standard on it. Software open fine. PROBLEM: The toolbars (menu stuff) appear extra-small, too small for me to read... I sent on the PC setting to try to change the display resolution.

    I just bought a new PC and I have re-installed my Adobe Creative Suite Standard on it.
    Software open fine. PROBLEM: The toolbars (menu stuff) appear extra-small, too small for me to read...
    I went into the PC settings and tried to change the display resolution. This changes the size of all  the icons (not only Adobe) but it does not solve the problem when I open an Adobe application (Photoshop or Illustrator)... The PC is run under Windows 8.1 and my display resolution is 3200x1800 (but again, when I change the settings for a smaller resolution, only the size of the icons is affected. Once I open the software, the problem is still there, extra-small toolbars...). Help!!!

    Anything before CC is not high-DPI compatible. Feel free to continue to experiment with your system settings.

        CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.2000.0
       CrystalDecisions.Shared, Version=13.0.2000.0
    I have then try the following code and found out the limit of ReportComment is 511 but in the Crystal Report 2008 designer and runtime the limit did not apply.
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
          Dim objRpt As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument()

  • Format Error : mkfs.ocfs2 1.2.7 file system too small for a journal

    Hi All,
    I am trying to implement Oracle 10g RAC on my laptop using vmware and openfiler software . But while executing the command
    #mkfs.ocfs2 -b 4K -C 32K -N 4 -L oracrsfiles /dev/iscsi/crs11/part1
    I am getting the error
    Format Error : mkfs.ocfs2 1.2.7 file system too small for a journal
    Please anybody can help me to resolve this problem.
    Thanks in Advance.

    How large is the device that you are formatting?
    The default journal size depends on the type specified. If none specified,
    then it assumes "mail" which sets the default journal per slot to 256M.
    If database type, default is 64M.
    Use "-T database" to specify database type, etc.
    BTW, one can always override the defaults. Say "-J size=16M" to make
    a smaller journal.
    man mkfs.ocfs2 and the user's guide has more.

  • Default text size in Compressor is too small for normal human eye

    Is there any way to change the text size in Compressor 4 in the windows?  I can't find any.
    The normal default text size is way too small for any normal human being eye to read clearly. 
    Please, have mercy on us, whoever designed the tiny fonts!   Not fair to the rest of us . . .

    Well, guess we folk with not-too-good vision will simply have to keep on trucking the best we can, eh?   We can't enlarge text, so as a result we can't  use software like Compressor like the rest of the population.  Sad to say, especially with a company like Apple . . .  
    Yeah, well I gave the Apple Compressor Team my feedback, just like I've done the last 3 months with other things, then of course the feedback from us all melts into the either, and we never really know if anyone reads it, like they say.  Me thinks not.  This is the only feedback I'll ever get, I'm afraid:

  • How can I perform the conversion of pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The pdf file is too small for me to read right now. Julyan Watts

    How can I perform the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The .pdf file is too small for me to read without a magnifying glass, and the document is more than one thousand pages.

    This answer was not helpful. First of all, I could not find "tech specs"
    anywhere on the Acrobat 11 homepage. And secondly I purchased this software
    for the specific purpose of converting .pdf files to Word. It was only
    after I had completed the purchase that I learnt that Acrobat does not
    permit the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic to Word files  in Cyrillic.
    I feel that Acrobat should have provided this crucial information before I
    allowed my credit card to be debited. That is why I  am now asking for my
    money back. But thanks for your attempt to solve my problem, even if it was
    not successful.

  • Yosemite fonts too small for middle aged eyes

    I just updated my desktop to Yosemite and am wishing I hadn't - the designers clearly don't have a clue what happens to normal eyesight in middle age. I am NOT vision impaired - just a little bit short-sighted (-1.5) and a little bit long-sighted (+1) and a little bit astigmatic, with up-to-date glasses that correct my sight properly. I am nonetheless finding using this new OS on my new 1920x1080 (non-Apple) monitor, which worked perfectly with Mavericks, absolute torture - all the text in menus, settings screens etc is just much too small for comfort, at least in the chosen font. In some apps I can use Cmd-+ to increase the font size, but there seems to be nothing I can do about the font sizes in Finder, Preferences etc
    I have read the threads about the reasons and ways to mitigate the problem, and have increased contrast and reduced transparency in the Accessibility settings, and am considering running the script to change the default font back to Lucida Grande. But my point is that I have perfectly normal eyesight (for someone of 53) and have never had any screen problems before, so I shouldn't need to be using the Accessibility settings. I know it is fashionable among designers to create lots of blank white space, but white space doesn't compensate for illegibility!
    I can see from all the threads on this topic that I am not alone. So please Apple, sort this out - usability must come first - and not just for the under 30s!

    Even iBooks on MBP Retina !? 
    I love the iBooks app and use it specifically because of the "Night" appearance option, which turns the page background all black and the font white (similar to inverting the display). Fortunately books' font sizes remain adjustable as big as I want, but - I can no longer see page information (current page number and number of pages left to read) at the bottom of each page.  The page information is barely visible (appears like small dark grey foggy font on a black background). This is very likely also the result of the Yosemite font fiasco.  Not an issue when reading books in "Night" appearance on the iPad, (they didn't break it yet yet in iOS).
    "Digital Books without page numbering information"!
    A Huge design fiasco.

       amount      IN    INTEGER := 32767,
       offset      IN    INTEGER := 1)
      RETURN RAW;Also, remember that # of bytes is not necessarily the same as the # of characters depending on your character set. So 2000 bytes might become 4000 characters. And you have to make sure the BLOB is actually character data and not arbitrary binary data.

  • Host Agent Service critical - Paging file is too small for this operation to complete

    Hi all,
    at the moment I have the problem that some of my hosts get in the errorstate critical in VMM 2012 SP1.
    The error details in VMM are:
    Error (2912)
    An internal error has occurred trying to contact the hostname server: : .
    WinRM: URL: [http://hostname:5985], Verb: [ENUMERATE], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/cimv2/Win32_Service], Filter: [select * from Win32_Service where Name="scvmmagent"]
    The paging file is too small for this operation to complete (0x800705AF)
    Recommended Action
    Check that WS-Management service is installed and running on server hostname. For more information use the command "winrm helpmsg hresult". If hostname is a host/library/update server or a PXE server role then ensure that VMM agent is installed
    and running.
    On the host i cannot connect to FailoverCluster or Hyper.V Manager. After a restart of the host the Problem is gone and the System is working without any Problems for some days.
    The paging file is set to 4GB and the OS is Server 2012.
    The hosts have 192GB of RAM.
    The configuration of the pagfile didn't change from Windows 2k8R2 to 2012.
    I didn't find any Errors in the eventlog. Do you have any idea where to check for that?
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    The hotfix didn't solve the Problem for me either. The WMI crash came again after a couple of weeks.
    An additional problem with VDS was detected and the following hotfix was installed:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2884597/en-us
    Also a problem with Clusterservice was found, sadly MS is tagging this handle leak as "won't fix".
    Nevertheless one WMI Instance is still growing...
    We are testing a hotfix that so far looks promising. Its a private hotfix only right now. But the file is listed as KB494704 you may want to ask your support engineer to look into it.
