I got mine around 9k but all stock (4gb RAM + 500GB) from a private seller. The condition is pristine with little to no visible scratches. It was lady owned and she worked at home most of the time.
I had it for a gift for my son's school work and it's been running great for almost two months now. Performance is not that bad (given it has spindle drive + 4GB of RAM) once you've updated the firmware/system drivers. The 32GB msata indeed helps with the performance boost.
That >10k price range is true coming from computer shops. Look for private sellers and you can haggle from here.

My backup machine, an X61 with Core 2 Duo T7500, just died on me the other night. T_T
It powers up, but the display doesn't turn on, and there's a 4-4-4-4 error beep code. The error coded doesn't change when I remove the RAM, which means it's a very serious issue. :O

i've wiped out the Debian Sid on my T420s and replaced it with Fedora 27 (for study purposes). since I got used to my previous setup of Debian and i3, I decided to do the same for Fedora 27. i made it two notches better by adding compton and customizing i3blocks.
and with all that work, its time to take a break and play my favorite game! it's like a time machine, as the wallpaper i used was from FC5 - the first fedora i used way way back! and the game also is the game i got addicted to in the arcades back in the days!
im using my logitech F710 and its plug / play in linux, no need for additional drivers.

Most recent models are P50/51/52 -- do not get the models with the s suffix (like the P51s) because those have dual-core CPUs.
Older model would be the T540p and W540, which has a Haswell (2014) quad-core CPU.

Bought a TP Yoga 370 in the US, with matching International Service Warranty -- has anyone tried getting warranty service here? May problema yung LCD ko, may fuzzy white border... kitang kita pag dark scenes or background. Kanino kaya pwede? Checked the local list, daming shops nakalagay, but not sure which one talaga ang ok yung service.
Thanks in advance.

ano kaya ang possible problem ng Thinkpad T420 ko?
Binilhan ko ng battery pero ayaw mag ON, pero kapag sinaksak ko sa power socket using power cord ay nag bo-boot naman pero kapag inalis ang power cord ay ayaw magboot sa battery. Detected naman ang battery kapag naka power cord.
TIA

Hi All
I'm planning to upgrade my X230 to X270. Question about the SSD upgrade, the X270 supports SATA 3 interface and I'd like to upgrade to PCIe NVMe SSD with adaptor (X270 has no PCIe connector).
Will I gain the 3,938 MB per second speed or it will down-clock? to somewhere 550MB/s?

There are PCIe x4 SSDs listed for the X270, based on the FRU listings:
<click here for link> <click here for link>
Take note that the 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD and M.2 2280 NVMe SSD share the same bay, and require different cables. This means:
1. You cannot have both 2.5 inch HDD/SSD and M.2 2280 MVMe SSD at the same time
2. If your X270 came with a 2.5 inch HDD/SSD, you need to buy the NVMe cable and caddy.

Tinaggalan ka pala ng storage flexibility sa X270, you cant have the M2+HDD combo.
Anyway, anyone looking for m2 ssd 2242? check my item

Thanks. Got the X280 instead of X270. This new unit is so slim just like my MBP. Downside is Memory & SSD are not replaceable (I got top of the line BTW) and battery is not that easy to access.

if mag upgrade ng ram is it always actual testing at the store for compatibilty ? pabulong naman where do you sourced out your memory upgrades. usually di rin kasi readily available especially 16gb sticks. Ano na ba life cycle ng ddr4 2400/2133 sodimms, pawala na ba or is it cheaper now ?
