    My T410 is on the way, and thought I'd look into getting some add-ons for it already. I'm wanting to get an Ultrabay battery, but just want to make I'm getting the right kind. Let me state what I know and point out if my understanding is wrong.

    I've read that the T410 is compatible with a Serial Ultrabay Slim, but can work with just an Ultrabay Slim battery. That battery is actually compatible with older models like the T40, T60, and T61 to name a few, so I can just buy an old one of these off eBay or something and plug those into my T410 with no issues?

    I was wondering though, since batteries do age and have a lifespan - could there be any issues in buying an Ultrabay Slim battery that might have been made back in the T40's days? Are there any recommended retailers to buy a reliable battery from, or would buying a random one off eBay do the trick?
