    Can someone tell me what kind of interface/connector the Ultrabay Fan for the Y500 uses? I have a Optical Bay that I rarely use so I was wondering if it would fit and indeed work. My laptop now has a Intel 520 60GB SSD for the boot drive, Intel 525 30GB SSD for my adobe suite and some programs, and a 1TB HDD for storage. I rearranged my to the second 2.5" slot. Now that region gets warm when the HDD is used so I was wondering if the extra fan would work or even help.
