Hi,
I'm new to this mailing list and I guess I should introduce myself.
My name is Soo Guan and I'm from Singapore. I've recently bought a
two-and-a-half-year-old second-hand ThinkPad 701C for S$600 with the
following configuration:
It's a DX2-50 with 20MB RAM, 360MB HD, port replicator II and no
modem. I'm currently running Win 95 on it with Microsoft Office 95
installed with only about 100MB space left.
I have a few questions for the group with regards to this machine :
- What is the maximum supported harddisk capicity for this
machine without using any special software drivers ?
(I was told by the service techincian from IBM that it's 810MB
but according to Craig's IBM Butterfly Page at
http://www-nrg.ee.lbl.gov/leres/butterfly/ the maximum
supported is 4GB.)
- Anyone had any experience installing IBM DTNA 22160
2160MB HDD into a TP701C ? (I saw a shop in Singapore selling
it for
about US$250/=)
- My NiCad battery pack only lasts about 20 minutes after a full
charge and I think it has reached it useful lifespan. Anyone
knows whether IBM's 3 year international warranty includes the
battery ?
Many thanks !
