getting a SSD into a T420s

[typer77]

Hi all,

Do 9,5mm tall SSD fit into T420s?

I have already done my upgrade, but due to my lack of knowledge, I was bound to get the only 7.5mm available which is the Intel 320 series.

If 9.5mm is possible, I may look to upgrade to a faster RW rate SSD....

thank you,

Jack

See http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147138.  It's 7mm.

There is a Crucial M4 with 7mm thickness version.

Is it possible to fit a (300GB Intel SSD 710 series) / (240GB Intel SSD 520 - 7 mm and 9.5 mm) to a T420 / T420s ??

T420s must get a 7mm SSD, T420 can have 9.5mm

Thank you. That was very helpful

Thank you for the clarification.

The Samsung 830 series SSD is 7mm as is the Crucial M4. Both of these drives have good performance and reliability. Personally I'd go with the Samsung.
