    I am probably going to buy a IBM T60 that does not come with a dvdrw drive. Since the ibm branded drive cost at least 200, I am going to get a universal slim drive dvdrw to pop in the T60. Which one would fit the best?


    Also, do I just pop out my combo drive and pop in the dvdrw drive and install the software?

    Dose the IBM T60 support 3rd party drives?

    Well I would assume most of them already have the dvdrw that came with the system. But yes I will start looking for them. Thank you.
