Lenovo ThinkPad T530 - spare parts, FRU numbers and how to choose

Q: Do parts from the ThinkPad T520 or T430 fit the T530?

Partly. The T530 (15.6") shares many parts with the T520 (predecessor) and some electronics with the 14" T430 (the same Ivy Bridge generation, island keyboard). The 15" and 14" cases differ, so large parts are not interchangeable. Match the motherboard by FRU number (T530 - Ivy Bridge).

Q: What battery does the T530 have and which one to choose?

The T530 has a classic, removable battery mounted at the rear (6- or 9-cell); additionally an Ultrabay battery can be fitted in place of the optical drive. It is a design predating the Power Bridge system. Choose the variant by FRU number. Separately there is a small CMOS battery backing up the BIOS settings.

Q: Palmrest and keyboard for the T530 - what to look out for?

The T530 has the island (chiclet) keyboard with a separate numeric keypad (a numpad - because it is a 15.6" model). Choose a keyboard and palmrest matching your language layout. Variants with FRU numbers are in the Palmrest, keyboard, touchpad section.

Q: What charger does the T530 use?

The T530 charges with a classic round-barrel adapter (7.9 mm with a centre pin), usually 90 W (or 135 W on more powerful configurations) - an older generation predating the rectangular Slim Tip. Slim Tip adapters (T540p and newer) and USB-C do NOT fit the T530.
