I had in January 2011 for my "new" Lenovo T500 erstandenes 2 of this adapter
bought. At first I was also very pleased with this. Unfortunately, or but "luckily"
I realized in the course of the following weeks the firm in this laptop a short-circuit
can trigger if I turned on notebook in the area of ​​Ultrabayschachts
touched. The notebook then went out abruptly, as if no power supply
would be inserted. Also read it again only after I turn on the power
and had the battery removed shortly.

In Thinkpad Forum I have found the contribution of a user with a Lenovo T410, the
also describes such a problem with one of these Leicke adapter.

"Fortunately", as I had initially believed in a mistake in the notebook itself and me
had been internally prepared for a warranty claim. But eventually I realized
The problem only occurred when a Leicke adapter was plugged. with a
meantime nachgekauften original Lenovo adapter, or if the Notebook
included DVD drive was plugged, there was never this shutdown.

+ Costs about half of the original Lenovo adapter
+ Screws are to lock the hard drive in the adapter included, the
original Lenovo Adapter missing this

- The adapter in the laptop a short-circuit and the "emergency shutdown" of the unit
trigger
