    Hi there,

    I'm just wondering if anybody knows if the ultrabay devices for the SL500 and W500 are both compatible with each other. I ask because of I'm thinking of buying an Ultrabay drive (listed for the SL500, to fit in my W500), it looks like it'll fit in the W500 from pictures but to be honest, I don't know if it's compatible with the motherboard or if it really will fit at all! The part number is 42T2579 and it's a Panasonic UJ130A.

    If anybody can confirm, that would be great!

    Thanks.
