Teach me not to read further down .. (I posted a reply to an earlier
mail as I though that thread had finished ..)

Sound like the one I bought branded "IBM Travelstar Inside" and comes
with a little leather pouch?

I've only tacked my drive in to test as I'm not sure how positively it's
held in there? I might also make up a mica shim to go under the drive
(might use the ones out of the 50CT .. ) and some foam or similar to
hold the drive back onto the connector?

All the best ..
