Thanks! > Since the drive in the 355 works fine in a desktop with IDE, you can try backing it up on a desktop (after getting the 2.5" -> 3.5" adapter), setting the drive as the slave, and then formatting it on the desktop, and then put it back into the ThinkPad. I have a dead 355C, and now that HD is in this server as an archive drive. The only problem is that it is a bit slow. Paul
