Know it well ... Have 2 of those . They do NOT fit a TP 360. A lot were sold by www.surplusdirect for a rather good price but the Ad was in errror. They should fit the TP 365. Actually what I have is the 6X version. if you look in the archives we talked about these things a bit.;-} The 4X version is the same other than the speed. > I just found an internal CD-Rom drive (that is reported to fit > the Thinkpad 365X, least that is what the saleman said) at a > great price of $21.00.

I really hope it will work, it was too > good of a deal to pass. I just took delivery of one of these, and can confirm that this model being sold by Surplus Direct is for the 365X line. The FRU marked on the unit is 82H8160. The parts list for the 365X can be found in the on-line IBM Hardware Reference manuals, at http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/cdt/hmm.html. I noticed that they do list a part, "Miscellaneous Cable Kit", 74H0574, which apparently includes a CD-ROM to system board cable. tim -----Original Message----- From: Patrick West <pccare@teleport.com> To: THINKPAD@cs.utk.edu <THINKPAD@cs.utk.edu> Date: Thursday, April 16, 1998 11:26 AM Subject: cd for 360 >Folks > >An ad I saw on the newsgroups "misc.forsale.computers.pc-specific.portables" >I saw a person selling this : > >TEAC 4x CD drive.
