Thinkpad and PDA

install 2nd HDD for my thinkpad

I got a new 2.5" HDD and a HDD adapter for my thinkpad.

  • Hitachi HTS541080G9AT00, 80G, 8M cache, 5400 RPM, UDMA 5
  • Thinkpad 2nd HDD adapter for Ultrabay Slim 

the 2nd hdd on thinkpad needs the hdd adapter using Ultrabay Slim interface.

it's very easy to fix and plug in, but there's a little gappy between the hdd and adapter.

windows xp is able to install driver for the new hardware automatically, the 2nd hdd appears as a new ATA device on Secondary IDE Channel and works on UDMA 5(ATA-100) mode.

By copying files, the 2nd hdd is faster than the native one. I found my Primary IDE Channel is working on PIO mode, that's a problem.

I have fixed the problem above, now the native one works on UDMA 5. 

I query the warranty info at:

  • http://www.hitachigst.com/warranty/jsp/arma71.jsp

I don't find China in regions list, so choose Hong Kong instead, enter serial number: XBGDN7DE

Result: 

Quick warranty check results
Serial number Expiration date
(YYYY-MM-DD)
Sold to GEO
XBGDN7DE 2009-01-25 AP

While the warranty Quick Check may show this hard drive has a valid warranty, NOT ALL WARRANTIES ARE TRANSFERABLE, therefore this Quick Check is not a guarantee of warranty entitlement.
