Lenovo Thinkpad T530 Upgrade Step by Step | MSATA SSD | Ram | Windows 10 | HDD

[@catzilla9932]

I've had my T530 since 2012 and didn't know you could add an msata drive until recently when I came across an article. Thanks to your video I just installed mine and put Windows 10 on it. My main drive is a 500GB SSD running Windows 7. I also removed the DVD drive and replaced it with a caddy with a 2TB hard disk for extra storage. I really love these old ThinkPads

They are so customizable. Happy to help 🤝 good work!

Can you put a 2.5" SSD in the optical drive without MSATA? Is there a regular SATA connection? I have almost no idea what I'm doing but I did the ram and now I want more space.

Fantastic video, found this video while actually using my T530. Ordered the memory and BAM done and dusted. Went ahead and downloaded the free version of MEMtest86-usb and let that run to test the new memory installed. Thanks again

Great video. Added MSata and Clean Install Windows on my T530. Helped me a lot. Thx.

Hi, this is great video. I'd like to know if I can install 256GB or 512GB mSATA drive. Thanks.

[@wizajit1]

thanks for this wonderful video. I had a small concern, crystal info says msata runs on Sata 300 and is supporting sata 600. how to get the optimum speed? thanks. :)

Awesome ! Thankyou Eric for this helpful tutorial !

[@thecollegepicker]

You are welcome Eshaan, upgrade away 🙌🙌

[@teaja3]

that MSATA you used, can the thinkpad use the bigger versions of it? I see you used the 128gb version but can it take 512?

[@PolosRavros]

What is the maximum storage that T530 recognize on MSATA slot?

[@marekkowalski3814]

Hi, Can you help me? Can you write to me from which site I can download the drivers for the Lenovo T530 i7-3740QM laptop ?

[@YesthisisCharlie]

My Kingston 240Gb mSata does not fit in the slot. Is this manufacturer error on Lenovo or Kingston ?

[@notcharles]

What if you want to CLONE the existing OS and HDD? (Not install Win10, keep what I've got?)

[@DeMoMan1434]

Do you have a link for the mat you used? That’s a nifty thing to have.

[@thecollegepicker]
