This clearly makes no sense in a notebook, as the amount of pins related to data transfer is only 40 (the other 4 pins are jumper pins). Unfortunately, this is considered a 'feature' as it actually does make sense in a desktop, but not really in a notebook. <br>[http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=115478&p=741729#p741729 Discussion related to this 'feature']</ins></div></td></tr>
