Cool thanks for that info Ian, I was thinking of replacing my main SSD in my Lenovo X220T this year, I think it also supports a secondary SSD (perhaps mSATA).
I guess I could always just buy a shiny new ultrabook instead π Jason Roberts Journeyman Software Developer Twitter: @robertsjason Blog: http://DontCodeTired.com Courses: http://bit.ly/psjasonroberts From: Ian Thomas Sent: βTuesdayβ, β20β βAugustβ β2013 β11β:β59β βAM To: ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com Something only for those willing to get intimate with their computer hardware: Samsung PM841 SSDs (128Mb β 256Mb - 512Mb) β note these are mSATA (see below) Link = RAMCity β I have had very good experiences with them, for my occasional need for RAM of various types; otherwise, I have no connection with the company. Iβm informed that these are normally supplied to OEM customers like Dell, Toshiba, SONY, and HP. http://www.ramcity.com.au/assets/full/MZMTD512HAGL-00000.jpg What is an mSATA solid state drive you ask? Well, it has the same (but smaller) internals as a normal SSD, only without the external casing. At a mere 6 grams, and just 5cm long, 3cm wide, and only 4mm high, it's an incredibly light weight and durable high-speed storage solution. It fits in many current model Ultrabooks, slim notebooks, and motherboards with an mSATA slot (or you can convert it to standard SATA with a SATA-mSATA adapter). The Samsung PM841 has the smallest z-height we've ever seen, and so far we know it fits perfectly in Sony Z7 series notebooks, Samsung NP9 (Series 9) notebooks, HP 9000 series notebooks, Lenovo W530, Toshiba Z800/Z900 series notebooks, Fujitsu Stylistic Q700 series notebooks, and many others.
