What does "ultra" mean ?? March 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A particularly vague use of the word "ultra" in marketing. It's fine, it's a flat, basically no-moving-parts dock with a range of ports on the back including ethernet, video, several usb, etc. (a) Be sure you buy the "tablet" or "regular" versions for your x60 or x61, the docks are NOT the same. I blew it and I think I had even read a comment on this. Had to return. (b) Does not come with its own power supply; use your original laptop AC supply, or get a spare. (c) Does not come with a CD drive, although some pictures show a CD drive half-out to tempt you. You can buy a special lenovo cd drive but it is pricey and separate. Seriously consider if you want to get a good external cd/dvd drive which you can use for years with other equipment, even though it won't fit internally within this particular dock. You probably will use it a few times a year anyway unless you rip a lot of cd's.
Be very certain that this fits your needsl! January 4, 2008

This product works fine. However, caution is in order due to Lenovo's use of confusingly similar naming.
As another reviewer stated, this base does NOT include any kind of optical drive. You can get a CDRW-DVDR combo, or a full DVD-RW burner, but they are optional (and may cost more than the docking station itself).
Also, the ONLY drives that fit are the Lenovo Ultrabay Slim drives, please note the "SLIM", this is VERY important. The standard non-slim Ultrabay drives do not fit. (too thick, 12mm vs. 9.5mm for the slim.)
And finally, while this device ("X6 Ultrabase") fits the X60 and X61 Thinkpads, it does NOT FIT the X60 and X61 Thinkpad Tablets. For the tablet models you need the "X6 Ultrabase Tablet". Of course! How very obvious! NOT.
Hopefully this will help someone else avoid the mistakes I made.
Very misleading photo. August 27, 2007

I thought it comes with a cd drive like in the photo. More details here:
