Could you post a link to this product, please. I am running an SSD now but originally was interested in an mSata, but was worried it would not work. I have a y410p and installed the BIOS mod from here. thanks.
-
Thanks, I read in manuals that Y510p doesn`t have msata port but new M.2 NGFF port. Are you sure that in Y510p exist msata port?
-
it should. i been running a crucial m4 256gb msata just fine as my boot drive. boot times are barely 4 sec.

yup hay svl7 why not post that vid thats out there. its hat i followed and worked like a charm. follows everything to make it work. only thing thats different is that he uses the old prr tool not prr2 (unless he renamed it).

well im trying to flash the gtx 650 ultra bay and its giving me an error. i was able to save the old bios but not flash it.
heres the command line im running
nvflash -i1 -6 vbios.rom
my file is names vbios.rom and from the id its 1 so it looks good to me but here's the pic that it gives me

id go in this order" ssd, gfx card, processor, then ram.
for the ssd somewhere in the 128-256gb range would be good
gfx card im not sure on prices but i would think that the gtx 670-675 and the gtx 770 would be cheaper then the 780 and still have good performance on the lower res screen.
for the processor i was going to say an i5 would be fine but if the i7 is similarly priced then go for it.
for ram i don't see a need for going with any higher then 8gb and its not to expensive to get compared to the rest of the items.

i got the one in the link and its awesome. nearly matches my desktop in performance.
-
id say jsut get a gtx 780 and call it good.

just saying hi im new i just got a lenovo y500 and was wanting to get the downloads but cant. and no one wants to ok my posts.

love my refurbished ssd i got from microcenter. 256gb msata crucal m4 for $140 is a steal. as soon as i saw it i went and got it. been running on it with out a problem and loving that i also have the 1tb in there for extra storage.
it also only available at few locations.
-
just got the lenovo y500 and i think its a killer deal considering the performance is equal to 12-1300$ books. not to mention i got it for $800. i keep the 1tb drive and added a refurbished 256gb msata drive for another $140 and its snappier then ever.
