I think you can get rid of the error, but I found that some drives will not work properly. Which is why they put in the error code.
OTOH, some will work just fine. Trial and error.

The largest drive that doesn't trigger the error is Fujitsu MHV2120AH which is 120GB/5400rpm.


Having said that, there's a modded BIOS available that gets rid of the "2010 error" on T43/p, R52 and X41/T:

None of this applies to T60, BTW. No error, no fix needed.


Good luck.


Cheers,


George

Subject: [Thinkpad] Largest HD for T43?


What is the largest hard disk for a T43 that will run
without a complaint at boot-time?
Does it depend on the disk manufacturer,
or is it simple dependent on the size of the disk?

Also, is there any such limitation for a T60?
