<< I am looking for a larger hard drive fro my 755cx. Ibm says that the
largest drive available is a 1.2 Gig. I was hoping for a 2 gig drive. I
seem to remmeber a discussion about this. Does anybody know if there is a
2 gig drive which willl work in my thinkpad with little effort? Either
way, I would appreciate suggestions on where to buy the 1.2 gig or better
drives.

CMS makes a 2.1Gb HD for the Thinkpad 750 & 755 series I recently purchased
from Vanstar for around $700. Great access time, comes with special disk
software to configure large partitions under DOS but found that Win95 could
format it on its own. Been using it for about 2 weeks now without a hitch,
and installation was as simple as lifting the keyboard, lifting out the 800Mb
drive, replacing it with the 2.1Gb drive, and closing the keyboard.
