    I want to replace the HD in my t60 2623-D6U with a SAMSUNG Spinpoint M Series HM120JC 120GB 5400 RPM ATA-6 Notebook Hard Drive Will this effect the air bag thing or is that a part of the carrier and not the HD itself?? :D

    Is there really an air bag thing? That's probably just the name. When I swapped the HD it's just a rubber seal around the HD holder. The active protection also works with other laptop drives.

    is this really hardware only?

    Doesn't it have to do with windows too.

    I don't use windows on my x60 just ubuntu would this feature still work?
