    Greetings,

    Have a T61 w/ the 5400 RPM 160GB encrypted hard drive (factory). Can someone advise which FDE drives are compatible with the T61 and its TPM in a larger capacity and preferably a 7200 spindle speed?

    I know Seagate makes a 7200 FDE 320GB drive but can't tell if it's compatible w/ the TPM sinde they list a different type FDE for the 160GB FDE.2 5400 RPM drive that I believe Lenovo uses as OEM

    Thanks!

    C'mon, you mean there are no Lenovo authorities here who can offer any advice on selecting a larger capacity HDD compatible with the TPM module?

    Pleeze?
