Hi,
The right part number for the hard drive kit is 681976-001. The support website for the laptop is on HP Sweden so run the part number on google.co.uk (or your Swedish). I have found the cheapest on us amazon for $38 or £42.

Hard drive caddy - T61 - How does this thing work?

I have a 200gig hard drive on my T61. Since my computer has died twice in a year I want to have a cloned hard drive handy to insert and not miss a beat and not fuss with reinstalling everything.
When I bought the machine I also bouht a hard drive caddy...
http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:item.detail?...
I bought a SATA 500 gig hard drive and inserted this into the hard drive caddy.
I inserted the caddy into the CD drive area.
Now what?
When I click on "My Computer" I do not see the drive listed?
Do I need special software to make a clone of my hard drive on here? Recommendations?
I thought Lenovo had one that came with it, but I do not see anything?
Should "My Computer" see this drive with the caddy?
All advice greatly appreciated!!

Good advice, same as the Lenovo Tech support. Unfortunately it does not see the new drive there either...
Right clicked My Computer

Disk Management
(Only C: drive shows)
This is the way to initialize drives, a step before cloning apparently to set up a new drive.
I ordered a SATA to USB cable from Amazon for $28. Hopefully this will work were yet another Lenovo periferal has failed.
Very frustrated with Lenovo, definitely my last one. After buying 3 in a year from Lenovo even with a warranty all I get is attitude from customer service. One guy told me that backing up was the same as cloning.
For anyone with the same problem trying to clone, I believe you will need a 3rd party software to make a clone.

This is the part you need:
Hard Drive Hardware Kit (not illustrated, includes hard drive rubber bracket, 2
hard drive retention brackets, and hard drive connector cable). 732071-001
HP is out of stock. Where are you located? Did you get the hard drive cable or do you need that, too? This kit might work for you, even though it is designed for a cousin model the Envy 15t:
http://www.newmodeus.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_5&products_id=547
From the pictures I have seen, the connector cables look the same for your model and the Envy 15t and the two rubber rails in the newmode kit will work well in place of a metal or plastic caddy so I would say it will work.
HP does have the kit for the Envy 15t in stock but it includes the cable and a rigid hard drive bracket which probably will not work in your model:
http://h20141.www2.hp.com/Hpparts/Search_Results.aspx?mscssid=89D17FDB803F478CA15BE6CB1C9A3AA0&Searc...
I do see that the Envy 15 kit will work in at least one Pavilion 15 model, but not specifically yours.

VME PCI-6200 hard drive interface cable identification

Hopefully someone on this forum still uses the VME PCI-6200. I'm looking for a replacement hard drive interface cable, 50-pin female-female, connecting a 2.5" PATA hard drive to the PCI-6200 board. Does anyone know the cable standard or where a replacement can be gotten? I'm enclosing pictures and the board spec for identification purposes. Thanks!

jambraun,
According to this website I found http://www.pc-pitstop.com/scsi_adapters/
It is an IDC 50 connector.
I briefly tried to find a retailer that sold them, but had no luck.
Best of luck!

T520 2nd HD Hard Drive Caddy Tray for SSD?

i want to use the DVD tray to add a 2nd hard drive using one of the many 2nd HD Hard Drive Caddy Trays i see online, but i want to use a solid state drive in it. Can this be done? From what i ascertain via product literature, it appears that any caddy tray i see online says "accepts 2.5' 12.7MM SATA HDD only" or some such." While there are many SSD's that are 2.5 inch, I've only seen ones that are either 7mm or "7mm (with 9.5mm adapter)." Is there a product (either a T520-compatible 9.5mm caddy tray or a 12.77mm SSD) that can make this work? thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

12.5mm is the maximum height. A 7mm or 9.5mm should work without any issues

T520 : hard drive caddy

Hello, I have a thinkpad T520 and I recently purchased the "ThinkPad Serial ATA Hard Drive Bay Adapter III" from lenovo.com however it didn't come with a hard drive caddy like the internal drive has
This looks like the hard drive caddy it requires.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Thinkpad-X60-X60s-X61s-Hard-Drive-2-5-Caddy-Kit-YG35A-/320721833450?pt=PCC_D...
Without this the drive will rattle/move around in the bay adapter and not have a firm fit.
It seems very odd to me that lenovo didn't include this considering that it seems to be required. I paid $60 for that bay adapter and I see those drive caddies going for as low as $4 on ebay.
Does anyone know a place where I can get one that does not in anyway involve ebay or paypal? I can't seem to find them on lenovo's site other than having to buy one of their hard drives that seem to include one.
Moderator Note: Edited subject to match content.

Well when i purchased the 500gb hdd and the ultrabay III for the thinkpad t510, the only way which the hdd fits into the ultrabay III is for me to take off the rubber railings and everything else and just put it into the caddy "naked." so far everything has been fine and if you look at the instruction booklet for installing the hdd into the ultrabay III, it specifically states to remove the rubber railings and other stuff and then slide it "naked" into the hdd caddy and then insert it into the thinkpad optical drive area.

What size are hard drive caddy screws A1181?

You will need a Torx T8.

Hard drive power cable

I bought a graphite imac and need a hard drive power cable.Will any cable from a slot loading crt imac work?Whats the part #?I do have one for a tray loading imac but its different.Thanks!

Nope I'm wrong. It appears to be the same width as a SCSI cable at the logic end (I've got a SCSI and it plugs in fine) and IDE on the HD end.
You could actually make it work with the IDE part of that tray loaders cable. I have both there and will test if you like. Only the HD would work.
I may have some spares here if you need one.

W510 Support for SSDs using hard drive caddy?

I just bought a Crucial M4 512GB SSD and I cannot get this thing to work in the hard drive caddy. Works fine in the primary slot, but can't initialize/partition/format/anything when using it with my official Lenovo hard drive caddy. So what SSDs does the caddy support?

Ok, I feel a little dumb. I got the M4 working. In the past, I've been able to hot swap my 2nd drives. Apparently this no longer works (need to figure out why). I plugged in my old HDD while booted up and got the same "drive not initialized" error on it. After a reboot, the HDD was up and running. So tried the same with the SSD and it's working. I thought I had done this as part of my troubleshooting but I guess not :/

2nd hard drive caddy capacity limit

Is there a limit to the size of the hard drive that my t23 will recognize in a 2nd hard drive caddy for the ultrabay?

MSI GT70 hard drive caddy

I'm looking for dvd hard drive caddy for my MSI GT70 2PE Dominator Pro and I found this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2nd-Hard-Drive-SSD-HD-Caddy-Bay-for-MSI-GT60-GE60-GT70-Swap-DS8A8SH-SN-406AB-DVD-/390795259961
Is that above correct one and do I need some wires or something for this also? And where I can find another 1TB Hitachi 2.5" hdd? I'm also looking another MSI ssd so I could use Raid2 speeds.
Thanks for all your help, I just wanted to create this topic to make sure I won't buy the wrong items.

if your using it in the place of the slimline CD/DVD drive you should be able to use its connector for the hard drive for power and data!
as for the Hard drive they can be got from many places like a computer shop in your area or online if you look up 1TB 2.5inch Hard drive!

HP DV7-4267CL Drive Caddy

I have an HP DV7-4267CL and it currently has a 160GB primary sata hard drive. I want to make the primary a 60 to 100 GB SSD and move the 160GB to the secondary. What caddy(s) do I need to do this? I need the exact parts because I am putting this on my Amazon wish list for Christmas and my wife is getting it for me and I want to avoid any returns.
Thank you very much.

HP Pavillion DV7 Hard Drive failure and replacement

Hi all,
As the title mentions, I have an HP Pavillion DV7, p/n: NB406AV. The SMART is showing an imminent hard drive failure. The primary hard disk quick test stops at 4% and shows a code "303" for hard disk 1. It also stops at 4% when doing a full HD scan.
So, I'll be replacing the HD. I have no idea what to buy, and I plan on buying a non HP HD. Can anyone tell me the specs I should look for? I'd like to get the biggest GB HD that will be compatible as well. Thanks for your help!

Hi,
It usesSATA HDD. Some dv7 models use SATA II but many later models use SATA III. SATA III is backwrd compatible but more expensive. DV7 is a series of hundreds different models and you won't go wrong with SATA III drive. It can accept current generation HDD's. The following HHD is a good choice with a good price/performance ratio per Gb:
http://www.seagate.com/au/en/internal-hard-drives/laptop-hard-drives/laptop-solid-state-hybrid-drive...
You can use 1Tb on your machine. New HDD's are thinner but the screws will be lined up and should be strong enough to hold the HDD in place.
Regards.
