    I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with them. I was thinking of buying one off ebay for $20, unless they have a really bad reputation.

    Yes, they do have a bad rep. It might work.

    I just received mine from ebay from my W500, slapped my SSD drive in there and bingo, perfect. I'll consider myself lucky and never look back :)

    So is the worst outcome that it just won't work?

    Is the $20 you'd save worth the potential headaches if you should have a problem? The real deal is $42.96 on lenovo.com, probably less if you look around for coupons or somesuch.
