Review: Great caddy for a great line of laptops - On my T430, this caddy fits like a hand in a glove - no extra space and no jiggles. I move my laptop around quite a lot and the caddy itself feels pretty sturdy, I haven’t had any issues with it in three months. The disk seems just as snappy as it is with a traditional sata cable. I had no issues using it with Debian 9 or Ubuntu. Worked right out of the box. It’s worth noting that there is a disk indicator light on the side. It’s no annoyance but I wish it was green to match the Thinkpad aesthetic. If you need to get a caddy, don’t cheap out - pick this one up. Note: this caddy comes with rubber studs to keep the drive from moving around and they’re good quality as well. Review: Best addition to my T430 - Like many, I had trouble with the optical drive (which I seldom if ever use anymore) after "upgrading" to Win !0 and after installing Linux mint it was not any better so I bought this ultra bay and installed it with a SSD. It is the most useful addition to this laptop. It fit as though the factory had designed it. It latches tight and ejects with the factory eject lever. The indicator light was a nice afterthought also. I mounted the drive in Linux Mint and it works like a dream. Data transfer is good, no problems. The drive fits very snug and with the rubber "screws" and the drop down latch bar at the rear of the drive, it is a perfect fit. I am very happy with the way this tray works in the T430. ## Features - Add a 2nd drive to your laptop by replacing your optical drive - Fits in 12.7mm height Ultrabay of your ThinkPad laptop,Fully integrated into ThinkPad laptop, no cables/PSU/software driver needed - This device accepts 2.5"/12.7mm-high or less SATA HDD/SSD. - Compatible:T420 T430 T510 T520 T530 W510 W520 W530 W700 W701 R400 R500 - Comes with matched Faceplate/Bezel,don't need change original DVD drive.

I move my laptop around quite a lot and the caddy itself feels pretty sturdy, I haven’t had any issues with it in three months. The disk seems just as snappy as it is with a traditional sata cable. I had no issues using it with Debian 9 or Ubuntu. Worked right out of the box. It’s worth noting that there is a disk indicator light on the side. It’s no annoyance but I wish it was green to match the Thinkpad aesthetic. If you need to get a caddy, don’t cheap out - pick this one up. Note: this caddy comes with rubber studs to keep the drive from moving around and they’re good quality as well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best addition to my T430 *by A***R on August 15, 2019* Like many, I had trouble with the optical drive (which I seldom if ever use anymore) after "upgrading" to Win !0 and after installing Linux mint it was not any better so I bought this ultra bay and installed it with a SSD. It is the most useful addition to this laptop. It fit as though the factory had designed it. It latches tight and ejects with the factory eject lever.

I am very happy with the way this tray works in the T430. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great 2nd caddy bay for the price. *by A***R on June 22, 2019* I bought this caddy bay for my Thinkpad T520 to mount the original drive because I installed a new SSD. On my T520 this thing looks and fits like it was made from Lenovo. There are no jiggles, no extra spaces and its flush upon installation. The disk reads just fine with no connectivity issues. I am running Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS and the only hiccup I had was drive permissions at first which was a simple fix in terminal. I cannot stress how happy I am with this product, the quality and ease of installation is great for $16. Don't buy anything cheaper if you can avoid it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/11131921-nimitz-2nd-hdd-ssd-hard-drive-caddy-for-lenovo-thinkpad](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/11131921-nimitz-2nd-hdd-ssd-hard-drive-caddy-for-lenovo-thinkpad) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
