Can anyone tell me if the Z400 GT740M edition has the swappable disc drive so i can install my SSD?

Planning to get the i5 version with 1TB HDD and 120gb SSD

Check out at garage sales, selling Y500 around RM34xx.

It come with 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz.
More enquiries can check with Y400 sifu here:http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2619081

I'm just wondering what is the maximum clock speed of RAM that it will support

Thx for info anyway

at lyn.. someone name jacky yang.. beware of ap set.. mine is local 2 years warranty

No swappable disc drive for Z400 . You can check with skycrawler in garage sales, whether any suitable slim caddy bay (not swappable) for Z400. You need to remove your ODD and use it as external drive.

You need to check with Z400 user or reseller whether HDD bay or ODD bay is sata3 port before you get the SSD. Generally, HDD bay is sata3 port and ODD bay is sata2 port. But pls check it out.

Z400 don't have extra msata slot for msata SSD.
Y400 has msata slot.

stay tune.

hey, care to explain the part in bold?

What is HDD bay or ODD bay? does it matter?

lol, just brought mine and new model came out..

so who want to buy my Y500?

HDD bay is hardisk slot and ODD bay is optical disk drive slot.
Generally, HDD slot come with sata3 port which will speed up the SSD. ODD slot come with sata2 port which will slow down the SSD like HDD speed.
You need to make sure Z400 come with sata3 port to enjoy the speed of SSD.

not just sata3 port but an extra sata3 port because i want to add SSD into my laptop, not replace my HDD

Is it possible to check from the lenovo website?

If sata3 port is at HDD slot for Z400, you can swap your HDD with SSD. Get a suitable slim caddy bay to place your HDD and swap it with ODD. Use the ODD as external drive. This is similar to how Y580/Y480 users installed their SSD.

If you want to retain your ODD in laptop, then use the HDD as external drive.

Suitable slim caddy bay? is it an extra component or is it in the laptop?

Furthermore, i dont think the ODD is swappable for the HDD. Correct me if i'm wrong

HDD caddy bay:


More info here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2363123

You need to get the same size caddy bay like your slim ODD from the reseller, so that it can fit nicely in the ODD slot.
Its not so easily swappable like Y400/Y500.

If you wish to upgrade the ram, ssd for Z400. Suggest you to get ready the ram, ssd and caddy bay, ask the reseller to do it for you when you buy Z400. It will save the trouble for you and you can learn how they do it.

You need to make sure HDD slot is sata3 before you get the SSD.
