Second HDD caddy for Lenovo IdeaPad

This aluminium-and-plastic caddy replaces the optical drive in compatible Lenovo IdeaPad notebooks so a second 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD can be installed internally. It includes an updated SATA board that resolves the shutdown issue reported with earlier caddies and uses built-in lock screws for tool-free drive mounting. The tray measures 139x127x11 mm and weighs very little thanks to its mixed ABS and metal construction.

Suits owners of listed IdeaPad models who want

Buyers with Lenovo IdeaPad 100, 100-15IBD, 320, 320C, 520, 330 or 330-14/15/17 variants can add a second drive without external cables, extra power supplies or driver installation. The caddy also allows dual-boot configurations with a separate operating system on the added drive. It does not suit owners of other notebook brands or models that lack a compatible optical-bay form factor.

Updated SATA board fixes shutdown problem

The revised SATA interface board eliminates the unexpected shutdowns that occurred when a second drive was fitted in earlier revisions of this caddy. This single change determines whether the accessory works reliably in the target laptops, so verifying the board revision is the critical specification for a successful installation.
