anyone repartition their C drives? or it is not required anymore? hehe...

nah i got it stock with OC win 8 on C: haha...

Both the Y500 & Y510P run hot.
Y510P runs hotter though but if you're using a single GPU instead of the dual GPU, you can enable Optimus which runs the Intel HD Graphics if I am not mistaken. This doesn't work if you've plugged in the second NVidia GT750M in the ultrabay though.

review for the Y500 dual SLI (only GT650M but current models are GT750M)

Which ever model you do get, do get a cooling pad as well.

-----------------------------------

how to enable msata for cache drive- and prove it is working FAST!!!
link that helps,
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/...?DocID=HT074404

what lenovo did not mention in the guide,
- for y500 sli - intel rapid storage technology software ( enable acceleration ) is not working on win 8 64 bit
- so all you need is lenovo expresscache from the link - beware of 32 and 64 bit
- after you install your msata into the laptop, make sure to check the msata detect by bios and showing details here


- also access bios and set boot mode to legacy support ( so that your msata will be shown there at boot
  device priority and for future you will be able to set msata to 1st boot and maybe install win8 directly at msata.

also,
- 1st time installing new or used msata, please uninstall any "intel rapid storage and lenovo expresscache
  software 1st" then reboot
- after that go right click my computer--> manage--> disk management and right click on your msata and
  delete volume ( let it be as default , no drive letter, no partition, yup the original unallocated space.
- install lenovo expresscache and reboot
- WALLA you will notice speedy boot of your win 8 64bit right away, and you may run this command to test your msata WORKING AS CACHE DRIVE OR NOT

1) Open the Start Menu, click on "All Programs", then click on "Accessories". Right-click on "Command Prompt" and then choose "Run as administrator" from the menu that appears.

2)Type "eccmd.exe -info" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- result sould be some statistic like mine


all above all FU lenovo and Intel for this complicated fakap method.
additional infos,
- your msata drive will available for view in disk management but not in my computer, also msata space is not available as normal storage( no copy and paste there like normal hard disk).

before setting as cache drive, please format and partition to test your msata 1st using as ssd software , this just to bench hehe 

So if I want to repaste I need to find someone , I dun have skill to open

this lenovo also not easy to open, even i follow the manual. Too much of flimsy clips.

I admit this laptop is not mean't for disassemble.

Not sure if anybody posted this, but for people that looks to solve the WiFi problems in Windows 8, try to download the driver in link below. It does seems to improve a lot on my laptop...

http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/...?DocID=DS031761

You'll need to uninstall previous driver first before installing this one. Judging from the release date, I think Y510P/Y410P should nott have problems with wifi on Win8... and I dont know why Lenovo Malaysia didn't put this driver update into the Y580 support page...

I have done that bro, thx for the clip

how come mine says 32gb?

I am using an intel msata ssd.

Anyway just curious why yours is not 32gb as per mine that's all.

Ya but I was referring to partition size which should be the same.

What is the size of your Samsung mSata ssd?

too much crash on BF4 SP
newest Nvidia driver does't work with my SLi configuration
back to 331.40 seems fix the problem

im able to push on high setting and getting avg 45-50 fps
p/s: i think my HDD wanna die already, slow response and random 100% usage. Plannning about buying a msata ssd for primary drive after this

I tried following the steps but to no success.
The "ProtectOff" does nothing.
The "2ndVGA_Winflash_Yx00" file showed "erased failed".

Do i need to downgrade or be in certain version of my GPU driver? 

LoL. Yeah. It worked. Thanks!
