Those sizes should be Gb of course – not Mb L

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 πŸ˜‰

Something only for those willing to get intimate with their computer hardware: 
Samsung PM841 SSDs (128Mb – 256Mb - 512Mb) – note these are mSATA (see below)

   = RAMCity – 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. 

I’m informed that these are normally supplied to OEM customers like Dell, 
Toshiba, SONY, and HP.

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.
