    Hi Jon,

    As per the design, the Hard Dive in the M4500 is positioned in the corner. However, in the M4600 it is positioned at the center on the right hand side. The caddy is designed according to the position of the Hard Drive; therefore the M4500 Hard Drive caddy will not go with the M4600.

    I hope you find this information useful. Please do write back in case you need any further assistance.

    Thanks & Regards,
    Swapnajan M C

    It won't fit correctly, the M4600 has the redesigned Precision chassis, whereas the M4500 is based on the E6510.
