    I bought from ny-computek Ultrabay caddy for T520 which is 12.7mm and it just arrived to me. I haven't even opened the package. Will update you on how it goes. However, some things to look for are:
    1. special latch on the Ultrabay - that holds caddy in the laptop, so to release it you have to pull the latch button on the underneath of the laptop. Without it caddy will drop out of laptop if you tilt the laptop.
    2. make sure you know what height you need 12.7mm or 9.5mm or else.
    3. that plastic thing that protrudes from the back of caddy - I have no idea what it is, and some ultrabays have it, some not - make sure you know which one you need. Just open your CD/DVD caddy and check if it's there or not.

    Other than that - they all should work fine.

    Reporting back. I ordered the one from nycomputek and it arrived quickly. It looks great and it works perfectly. I have my 2nd drive in my machine now and it is detected perfectly. I am very happy with it. Trouble free and inexpensive.

    I just bought one too but I made a mistake and ordered the SATA 2nd HDD Hard Disk Drive Caddy 12.7 Universal DV25 | eBay

    instead of:

    NEW 12.7mm SATA 2nd HDD Hard Drive Disk Caddy Bay for IBM Lenovo Thinkpad T420i | eBay

    because i thought the corners had to be 90 degree angles like my dvd drive shown here
    ORGINAL HP G6 SATA DVD±RW Burner Drive GT50N w CONNECTOR TESTED | eBay

    The N51VN-A1:
    T9600|GT 240m@330m|4GB DDR2|64GB + 320GB@7200 / 22"@1080p
    3Dmark06 6224
    Pcmark Vantage 6674
    3Dmark Vantage P2498
    Next Notebook:
    8+ cores at 4+ GHZ | 5120+ shader ATI GPU | Quad SSD's. 3Dmark11E ~12000 PCMark 7D ~14000 Crysis 3.5 at 61fps
    (unless the cloud destroys the PC market)
