IBM Lenovo T61 Thinkpad - a standard SATA harddisk cannot be used ? Is this true

<< < (2/4) > >>

Wordzilla:
Correct. And for me, the first thing I usually do when I receive a new thinkpad is to remove the f hidden partition that does nothing but shrink my harddisk!

app103:
I don't know about ThinkPads, but I know that HP's come with a utility to burn the restore partition to cd's or dvd's as a bootable set of restore disks. They allow you to do this once, and only once.

Wordzilla:
ThinkPad's Rescue and Recovery allows you to save the hidden partition to multiple DVD/CDs. Anyway IMHO there's nothing but crap buried in that area.  ;)

justice:
Thanks Justice for the heads up on DriveImage XML. I will also check it out.

If you have Acronis you probably don't need DriveImage. Good luck.

Wordzilla:
If you happen to have Seagate hard drives, try DiscWizard (rebranded and free TrueImage) from Seagate.
