    I've successfully upgraded a T420 with an mSata SSD, which looks a similar card/solution to this M.2 malarkey but older tech. So no use to this thread but to say it was a very easy upgrade, just plug in, format, and play.

    If you buy the wrong size via an online source you can return it via those distance selling rules, so order one of each size if in doubt and return the ones that don't fit.
    Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

      I have a T450 with an SSD in it. IBM issue and I'll check tomorrow what SSD it is. Too tired now...
      I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

        In the T450s there is room for 1 kitkat style SSD (ie - Crucial M4) and one or two slots for M.2 2242 sized SSDs.

        I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

          So I open the laptop and find that next to the wifi card (where there should be a gap for the m.2 ssd) is an AirCard - I believe this is for 4G, like a phone? Never used my laptop like this, so I am okay to move it and replace with the ssd?

          Edit: did it anyway, installing now.
