Hi guys,

The IBM Lenovo ThinkPad X240 Laptop takes the PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM SODIMM 204 pin memory.memory type, and comes installed with 4GB memory. How much memory does the IBM Lenovo ThinkPad X240 Laptop take? You can upgrade your IBM Lenovo ThinkPad X240 Laptop to up to a maximum memory capacity of 8GB Memory. DIMM population sequence for mirrored-channel mode. The mirrored-channel mode DIMM population sequence table is a five-column table where the rows indicate the DIMM installation sequence for mirrored-channel mode. Column 1 lists the DIMM installation order. Column 2 indicates the DIMM connectors to populate for systems with one microprocessor. The memory type is PC3L-12800 - DDR3 - We bought Corsair Vengeance memory as it was a compatible part according to Corsair, and I can't see why it wouldn't be a compatible part, but after installing it, I get Beep Code 3-3-1. This suggests System board, or DIMM. I can only assume DIMM, so I remove the RAM and put the old stuff back in and boots. The Lenovo ThinkPad X240 is a powerful business laptop sporting a Core i5 Haswell CPU, a speedy solid-state drive, and a 12.5-inch IPS touch-screen display. You'll pay top dollar for this well. The ThinkPad X240 is thin and light. With its weight starting at 1.42 kg and measuring 19.9 mm at its thickest point for the non-multitouch model with internal 3-cell and rear 3-cell batteries, the X240 is ultraportable — without sacrificing anything in terms of ports, connectivity or durability.

Lenovo Thinkpad X240 Memory Slots

I got a few questions regarding upgrade of my X240. I learnt that X240 has 2 slots for M.2 SSD. One is occupied by a 16GB SSD cache drive (this is what I find in my device manager) and the other is for WIFI card. I wanna replace the 16G SSD with a new SSD as windows drive, keep the HDD and upgrade to 8GB ram as 16GB is not supported.

Memory Dimm Slots

My questions are:
1. Is it any 2242 m.2 SSD with be OK? Which model is crecommended? 128GB or 256GB?

2. Some said the slot is for cache drive only. Is it really OK use it for windows drive?
