I was browsing at an online store today and I see that Intel has released 1.8" 160GB drives! These are 5mm thick. Now I have upgraded my Z to a single 160G (2.5") but these should slip right in!
Does anyone know where I can get the required cable and the tray for the z-series notebooks?
Thanks!

I have a RAID cable and 2-SSD frame for the VGN-Z series.
These are brand new original SONY items, never installed in a notebook, made in Japan and they come in original SONY packaging.
If you want these please send me a PM. -
I might be interested if I could find out how to enable the raid option in the Sony Z bios. I have heard that you can downgrade the bios to a point when it was included, but won't this have some adverse effect on the system?
Thanks -
I have the 2x128GB Raid 0, and before that I had a single 200GB HDD 5400RPM drive, and I was able to test and use both drives on the same motherboard.
Once you put in the Raid 0 cable, your current BIOS will actually detect and let you setup the options you needed.
On another note, if you don't need your single HDD bracket + cable, I'd be willing to buy yours if you do indeed decide to Raid your system...I lost mine -

You have PM

I didn't get any PMs?

I'm PM you if I decide to gett rid of my single setuo.
Why don't you just buy one from spareparts? -
Didn't know they were avaliable to buy from another place?! Do you have the URL??
