Try this link for info on IBM Thinkpads. I think I've seen an answer to
your question here.

all you have to do is go to the ibm laptop site. Type in your laptop
type ,model no. and seriel no. It will automatically tell which type
and size hd will be compatable with your unit. IBM is by far the most
user friendly site for help. I have a hard time believing you couldnt
find an answer. If all else fails call tech support, I know they can
help you find the answer, providing the unit is legally owned.

Absolutely! I have one of those in a 600E and it works
beautifully. Like someone wrote on Thinkpads.com
"The 7k60 is like a shot of Viagra for a Thinkpad".
