    Hi all!
    I recently bought a t61p an.. wow! It's a great machine!
    I saved some money buying it online, so I'd like to get some extras for it.
    Regarding the Ultrabay: which accessories can I get?
    I'm interested in particular in
    - PATA HDD frame
    - Extra battery
    I have seen a lot of these with good prices on eBay. if I see an accessory (a battery, in this case) that is for the T40 will it work for the T61p? Are they compatible?

    Thanks for any help!

    there is also supposed to be a travel bezel that just covers the opening and saves the weight of any ultrabay device, but i have never found one.

    That's probably the only 2 things I can think of to use in the ultra-bay. You can check Lenovo website for some more accessories.

    Thanks! But what about compatibility? I have found a PATA (not SATA) Ultrabay adapter for the T40. Is it compatible with the T60/61? I need PATA...
