Can anyone confirm for me whether a CDRW-DVD drive from an IBM T42 will fit and work with an IBM T60 (my laptop)? I think the 2 options are below. They seem to be the same (i.e. dimensions etc.), just wanted to double check cos i can't test before buying (2nd hand).
Or will both work?
Hoping one of you IT guys can help me out
Thanks in advance
