Lenovo Thinkpad T430

Hi guys,.

I'm new to the forum and have only recently bought my Lenovo Thinkpad T430. I'm looking to add an internal SSD flash drive and move the HARD drive in the ultrabay port sitting factory. I just want to confirm with you kind people that I bought will indeed get the job done.

I ordered this SSD:

http://www.eBay.co.UK/ITM/191256143695?_trksid=p2060778.m2763.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

and this ultrabay caddy:

http://www.eBay.co.UK/ITM/350495387260?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

This will be sufficient for the work, I'm looking to meet? Currently, I have 8 GB of RAM and plan to upgrade this 16 GB in time. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Ryan

Welcome to the forum.

Yes this SSD and Ultrabay adapter will work fine.

A few comments.

1. while 64 GB is enough for the BONE and some apps it is somewhat tight IMO. SSD prices are falling. Consider a 120 GB or 240 GB. This way you can run the T430 without the HARD drive in the Ultrabay slot if necessary. What to do when I travel so that it has no moving for parts damaged by accidental impact.

2. Another option to consider is an mSATA SSD to go in making WWAN. This will keep the existing HDD where it is and let the Ultrabay available for the DVD or even another SSD/HDD.

  • Problem Lenovo Thinkpad T430 HDD/SSD

    Hi all

    I recently added an SSD for my thinkpad only to windows hosting on. I have a 300 GB HARD drive installed so I installed a 120 GB SSD into the slot of the wireless card. Everything went well, I installed windows 7 on the SSD and the laptop starts perfectly but I can no longer see the HARD drive in my computer, it only displays the SSD here now.

    Can someone advise what I need to do to get both drives visible?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Your computer is to see your drive, it must just be initialized.

  • How does the ThinkPad T430s battery charge level

    I recently bought a Lenovo ThinkPad T430s 2356-LRG and I was wondering how to work the charge technology. I have searched and looked in the manual, but I couldn't find a good answer.

    My question is that I use Notepad a lot on current alternative. And often for long periods of medium to heavy loading. I run Linux and have set up ChargeThreshold. He stops the load to 95% and again 45%.

    But when I keep the AC on, and if the battery has 80 percent, that it does not move upwards or downwards as expected. Because they have to go lower than 45%.

    The power then go directly to the machine and bypass the battery? Because the battery LED on the back is disabled. Or it will go through the battery and produce cycles of load on the battery?

    So let's say that the battery is bypassed, it will then be fine to keep on AC and active for a period of several days with heavy load, but the temperature of the battery. I know heat kills it.

    I could also buy a 95W power adapter and remove the battery from the machine, completely when I have it in my office for an extended period of time.

    It will charge the battery unless it takes. It's OK to have the battery on a computer permanently connected.

  • ThinkPad T430s - the touchpad buttons not working not

    I have 64 bit Windows 10 installed on my device to score Synaptics Thinkpad T430s. driver version is 19.0.17.27.

    My problem is that the buttons below the touchpad will stop randomly work and after some time buttons started working again. Also, cursor freezes randomly. TrackPoint is functioning normally.

    Trackpad works like a charm.

    This laptop is under warranty, so I contacted Lenovo Sunday. Today, they came and changed the palmrest with touchpad. Now touchpad seems to work OK.

    Also, which version of Ubuntu or under Live CD do you use? The reason I ask is because it should be relatively new. For example, there should be no problem with anything out of the Oct/Nov the year last to this day. Try 16 11.10 Ubuntu or Fedora or Linux Mint 12. One of these should work.

    Good luck!

  • Lenovo-ThinkPad-W541-20EFCTO1WW: is it possible to change/upgrade Quadro K2100M of GTX 980 M?

    is it possible to change/upgrade GPU - Quadro K2100M of GTX 980 M in ws laptop Lenovo "ThinkPad W541' (20EFCTO1WW)?

    I like the laptop, but the GPU portion is not for pc games, so iwould like to know weather is it physically possible to change this QuadroK2100M in the Lenovo ThinkPad W541 games GPU i.e. GTX 980 M?

    Thanks in advance!

    The GPU is soldered to the motherboard, so he can't be replaced.

    The K2100M should still work good for the games.

    The 980M is also a map of 100 watts, while the K2100M is a map of 55 watts. There is no way the W541 can handle it, even if you can replace the GPU.
