M93p FRU / part no. for second HDD in SFF

Hello all; I'm in the Toronto area in Canada and am having a very hard time searching for the FRU / Part No. and ordering something that seems to be very well documented at Lenovo in regards to installation. I have spoken with Lenovo Support (who suggested that I 'Google' for the part no. since they could not find it - gee... thanks Lenovo) and have spoken with a Lenovo Business Partner, of whom I deal with for servers and such - and they seem to be at a loss. This is what I've come up with so far: This is what it looks like... [Search for: lenovo-desktop-tower-thinkcentre-m93-m93p-internal​-detail-7.jpg] Note the 2.5" metal 'cage' and blue 2.5" HDD carrier...I Will need the metal cage and blue plastic bracket. Does not seem to be listed in the 'parts' list - but there are plenty of 'install' manual referring to this part(s). [http://download.lenovo.com/parts/ThinkCentre/m93_m​93p_mini_tower_form_factor_06212013.pdf] Here is an installation video referring to a 'Secondary Hard Drive Mount' - Skip to the 30 second mark. http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/videos/pd028086 NOTE: The title is "[VIDEO] HARD DISK DRIVE INSTALLATION MOVIE - THINKCENTRE M83, M93, M93P (SMALL FORM FACTOR)" This is the written version of 'Secondary Hard Drive Installation' http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/pd027387 NOTE: The title is "INSTALLING OR REPLACING THE SECONDARY HARD DISK DRIVE - THINKCENTRE M83, M93, M93P (SMALL FORM FACTOR)" All I've found is definitely what I need... but to order, I need the FRU/Part-No. and I have not found any. [RANT] Yes - I've searched the Forum - there seems to be only one other 'hit' and the Part No. is not Canadian/North American... so my Lenovo 'contacts' simply ask me to provide 'them' with another part no.... Isn't Lenovo support/ordering supposed to be able to get a part no. for me? Lenovo... How am I supposed to provide a Part No. that is located somewhere in 'your' data base? Loved the ThinkCenter's, Xservers and ThinkPads and the support when it was all IBM... but during the last few years - I'm finding it harder and harder to recommend to my Clients (and my self) to use/stick with Lenovo. Used to hate finding Dell parts; but the last few years - it's been easy stuff and the support is pretty good too... come on Lenovo! FYI - been searching for almost a month for these parts. Sorry for the rant; but frankly, I'm super disappointed in Lenovo in the fact that 'I' have to find a part no. for something that seems so well documented. Also, Lenovo has instruction manuals WITHOUT giving a part no's. I don't seem to have any means of locating a part no. I'm also super mad at the amount of time I've spent trying, in good faith, to find a part no. while Lenovo support / reps / etc. lend 0% help towards.

Hello
I dont know the part number. Here it is a user to user forum and you will not find an notebook technician or ASP here.
In your case I would contact the nearest ASP. They can tell you the part number and order for you.
On the Toshiba website you can search for authorized service provider.

  • Thinkstati​on E31 tower: 5.25-inch optical drive bracket FRU part help

    This is a message for Lenovo Technical support. For a Thinkstation E31 tower 2555/22G, I need to install a tertiary disk drive (2,5 inch SSD) into the second 5.25-inch optical drive bay that is empty. In order to do this, I need some mechanical parts mentioned in the HW maintenance manual @ chapter "Installing the tertiary hard disk drive": namely "storage converter" and "5.25-inch optical drive bracket". I tried to match these names with the names provided in the FRU parts database for E31 (document thinkstation31_tower_5_29_2012.pdf), but without success. Impossible to find out what FRU part I need to order ! I find the FRU parts description too brief and highly confusing. Could someone from Lenovo please tell me what are the FRU's part no. that I have to order ? THX in advance, your help is very much appreciated.

  • Can I build in second HDD on Satellite P200-1I4?

    Hi!
    First of all sorry for my bad English. =((
    I have a toshiba SATELLITE P200-1I4 and question is: can I install one more (additional) HDD. Or there is only one SATA slot in this laptop? Unfortunately laptop is not near me now, and I can't remove back panel and see it.
    On Toshiba web site I can not find information about it.
    Some more information:
    SATELLITE P200-1I4
    S/N: z7269306k - M/N: PSPB3E-0J601MRU
    Thanks, and i am hope all written above is understandable. =)

    Hi
    I agree with the user above. Please have a look under the cover for second HDD slot to check if there is a second HDD connector or not. This takes only few minutes.
    If yes you can ask your favorite computer store to get an additional HDD.

  • Satellite A200-1S5 - Can I use a second HDD and RAID?

    Hi all,
    Is Toshiba Satellite A200-1S5 eligible for adding a second hard drive? It has RAID controller as far a I know - could it help?
    Thanks,
    Denis

    The Satellite A200-1S5 does NOT support RAID!!!
    But some A200 could use two HDDs (but NOT RAID!!!) There are different A200 models which supports different hardware specifications.
    Therefore you can find the second bay at the bottom of the unit.
    But if there is no connector for second HDD then this means that there is no second HDD controller and you cannot use second HDD in this A200!!!
    Bye

  • Second HDD in Satellite X200-21K (PSPBUE)

    I'm looking for some informations about installing second HDD into my laptop.
    Laptop does have an "empty/spare" bay for second HDD, but there are no disk connectors in bay. So there is no easy way for upgrading.
    So I've looked over the net, and as far as i know i have two options:
    1) Buy appropriate hdd connectors and 2.5" HDD. Take appart my laptop, connect cables onto motherboard and install second HDD in empty bay.
    Q1) Does X200-21K motherboard have second (spare) SATA connector? I assume that motherboard have only two SATA connectors (one for HDD, and one for DVD).
    Q2) Is possible to connect two hard drrives onto one SATA motherboard connector?
    2) Replace DVD with HDD
    Q1) Is this possible? Did someone alreary replaced DVD with HDD?
    I've seen on internet that this is possible on MacBook, and on some other laptops/notebook (HP,...)
    Thanks for answers

    hi petrusko_1,
    i cant believer that there is space for a second hdd without connector...are you sure?
    can you upload a picture?
    - to your first question: do you have the whole number at hands (starting with PSPBUE-)?
    this number indicates what hardware/software is inside (ram, hdd, grafics etc)
    - second one with the sata issue: one connector = one drive
    if you are shure that there is only one connector in your machine you wont be able to connect 2 drives to this single connector.
    soldering another connector to the mainboard is dangerous and its doubtful that it will work afterwards....
    your idea with using the second connector of the odd (optical disk drive) isnt bad...
    maybe it is a baymodule available where you can put in the sec. hdd and install it to the odd bay....
    btw: the sata controller doesnt care if there is a hdd or odd attached....

  • Can I use the second HDD in a Mini for Time Machine?

    I am looking to replace one of the HDDs in a Mac Mini with an SSD, this would be for the main OS to work on and all my files, I am not a big advocate of spreading around my files over multiple data silos. I was wondering then, as I don't have a Time Capsule, whether it would be possible to dedicate the second HDD for exclusive use of Time Machine, backing everything up?
    I don't have a Mini at the moment and so don't know how OS X treats the existing setup, is the HD treated as one, or are the two clearly separate? It's a mystery to me why there are two in the first place, I summise that it was an attempt by Apple to create the illusion of a fater computer by adding in a small amount of SSD to complement the larger (and cheaper) HDD?
    Anyway, would splitting the two work and would it be easily achievable with existing tools in OS X?
    Thanks.

    Yes, you can use the 2nd HDD with Time Machine as your TM back up drive.
    As long as you are able to format your new SSD and the HDD, you can use them independently. I would advise using Terminal and the diskutil commands to do this as Mountain Lion 10.8.3's GUI Disk Utility will see the SSD and HDD as needing to be "fixed" (drives marked in RED) and if you choose to FIX the drives your two drives will automatically be setup as a Fusion drive and all data on the drives will be lost.

    Hi Martibuzz,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per your query we understood that you are looking for Trackpad FRU for ThinkPad T540p.
    The trackpad (Track Button) is not a serviceable part; hence if you want to replace the Trackpad you have to replace whole Keyboard unit, because trackpad will be integrated with the keyboard only.
    And for further assistance on the part you can go Keyboard menu in ThinkPad T540p FRU manual.
    Part number = 04Y2348 - FRU CS13KM-KBD US English Chicony- Primary, for the system which is shipped with US English keyboard.
    And replacing the part you can view the steps from ThinkPad T540p HMM manual.
    Hope this helps!
    Best regards,
    Hemanth Kumar

  • Second HDD for Satellite P200D possible?

    Hi, got a Satellite P200D which I've been very happy with, but need more space - is it possible to either fit a larger primary drive (curently around 200GB) or a secondary drive in the spare bay. If secondary drive is viable option, what leads, connectors, mounts etc do I need?
    Thanks in advance

    If you dontt have such a connector, you cant install a second HDD. Furthermore you cant buy such a SATA connector because they are fixed/soldered on mainboard.
    So your only option is exchanging the HDD with another model. As I wrote you can take a 500GB model. It must be a 2.5 HDD with SATA interface.
    I can recommend a Western Digital Caviar Blue series. Thats a good compromise between performance and noise.
    But of course, Toshiba HDDs will work too. ;)

  • Second HDD for Portege A600

  • Satellite P300-20H - Second HDD caddy

    Satellite P300-20H, PSPC8E
    This laptop has a second HDD bay and a second drive works in the bay.
    I have tried in vain to find a HDD caddie for the second HDD bay, can anyone point me in the right direction for the part number or a shop that sells them.
    Thanks

    I have upgraded brothers P300 with second HDD but I didnt use HDD bay. I have just fixed second HDD to stay in the same position with piece of plastic so that HDD will stay in place.
    You can also contact Toshiba service and ask for help. I am pretty sure they have such HDD bays used before and can imagine you can get one.
    Visit also eBay/notebooks and check for Toshiba hard drive caddy. I saw several bays there.
