In my case the OEM drive had a very sloppy metal case, both on my own
TP755C and the organisations' TP 755-Pentium i have to use a litte
force to switch, but it works okay. My question is about procedures
for usin a 3d party drive, when I believe we have to solve the
case.problem (easy) and the cable problem (difficult ?) or is the 750
cable a de facto standard on 2,5 drives ???
