so did ja buy HDD caddy ?
drillz plz.
wondering which HDD caddy can fity 400 beside ultrabay?

yo guys.. i've upgraded to corsair Corsair Vengeance CMSX8GX3M2A1866C10 2 sticks, 4GB each. When i plug in both RAMS, i have frequent error from rebooting Win 8. But when i stick one of the RAM unit, it performs flawlessly. does it mean i have one faulty RAM? or its the laptop throttling? or windows 8?

Guys, Y400 GT750M user here, why does my usb 3.0 perfomance suck now? only 4MB/s, before this 15MB+/s..how to fix this? using other OS (linux) work fine, i cant driver for win8..anyone can help? and btw what i know is this lappy has 3usb port, 2 3.0 1 2.0, the left port is 3.0..the right black port is 2.0, and the right yellow port is the 3.0?

use memtest86+ for checking memory failure
check one by one

Do you have memtest86+
If you didn't try, boot it and go have test 8 and test 5.
As i know 1866 and 2133 should be no problem but they are limited with 8GB only.
Personally, stay away from Corsair RAM in future they have custom timings and need to fix via software from another computer.

Lets try this fix, before blame the SODIMM faulty
The problem with this SODIMM, it cannot run neither 1600MHz nor 1333MHz, because it has incomplete JEDEC timing table;

Use Taiphoon Burner to re-correct the timings.



If that solution do not work, you may have bad sticks.

Thanks guys. I'll do that. The ones that I had are 2 sticks of 4GB. I'll give an update once I tried the mem test. The problem arise if I stick both sticks of Corsair together. I seems to run fine with one stick.

if not mistake usb 3.0 blue colour. yellow port usb is 2.0

blue is USB 3.0.
others all USB 2.0

yellow means USB always on. can charge phone even your laptop turn off

Ram should work out of the box. most prob he got bad sticks

Except of Corsair RAM they have Custom JEDEC and missing JEDEC timings causing the computer will not post.
That's why I said avoid Corsair Vengeance SODIMM and go for other brands.

Hi, I wanna ask, i planning to put mSata on y400 and make it as primary drive. Will the recovery function recover everything to mSata or the HDD?

As long you remain your hidden partition from Lenovo which is 20GB and it's drivers. it still works :3
Just don't mess with D drive and hiddens partitions and delete C (windows boot drive) will do.

Wow Lenovo really gonna give Alienwaer/Dell a run for their money.

Only thing is I cannot brain why still spec with 2nd generation i7 CPU

Ivy Bridge-E this September only launch.

Are we not moving towards Haswell already?

Check Lenovo malaysia website. Guess this is not gonna be available here

When comes to desktop, Custom made is best :3

Haswell that ends well? lol

If can't get a Lenovo Y510p SLI GT750M, maybe consider an illegear RE-15 GTX765M.
Or go for a Lenovo Y500 SLI GT750M as the power saving for the Y510p is disabled when on SLI. & the processor is only a i7-4702MQ(2.2GHz) instead of a i7-4700MQ(2.4GHz)

but to be frank I've been looking at task manager while I'm Playing game (got a 2 screen setup at home). The load on the processor is not that great while the game is running. So speed of 2.2ghz vs 2.4ghz should not make such a big difference.

Side note: even when not running without sli while on battery the gpu speed is also cap for y500. This part I don't understand. Anyone care to share your 2 cents?

IF you are unplug, Lenovo did that because we don't have optimus :/
