    Hi,

    Does anyone know if there's an External USB Enclosure of Thinkpad T410s Ultrabay DVDROM? I've seen the enclosures for T60's on Ebay, but I can't find ones for T410s.

    thanks..

    What's the model for your DVD drive? Just check the height of it (I believe it's 9.5mm). eBay has several external USB enclosures for 9.5mm height ODDs.

    Yes, it is 9.5mm, but I've only seen external USB enclosures on Ebay for the old Thinkpds (T40, T40p, T41, T41p ,T42,T43,T60,T61,Z60,Z61). I don't think it work for T410s. They even have pictures of it and the connector in the back aren't the same.

    I'm looking for External USB Enclosure for Thinkpad T410s.

    Thanks...
