What do you want to know? I found the schematics of the Y510p mainboard in a forum and started investigation on the connector. It's a special connector from TycoElectronics. After that I designed the board, checked the impedance and layer stickup, routed it and ordered a PCB.

Y400 up to Y510p supports the ultrabay adapter. So yes, this adapter should works also in a Y500. Unfortunately I have no Y500 to test the functionality.

I will get the new adapter end of may. Stay tuned :-)

Currently the adapter is working as a PCIe x1 connection. The next version will support PCIe x8. This means a boost by 8 compared to some products which supports the WLAN interface as a eGPU connection. And another big advantage is no need to change the BIOS. No new whitelist is needed for this adapter.

There is a new possibility to get high graphics performance on a Y510p. Is eGPU possible for lenovo ideapad y510p? There is a kickstarter project available. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/290597041/lenovo-y410p-y510p-ultrabay-adapter-for-graphic-ca 50usd if you decide fast :-) -
Both GPU vendors are supported. You need only the right driver for the GPU.

This adapter is a new development. The first version has some drawbacks but it works. You need an additional PSU for it to work because of the high power requirements of such a desktop GPU. I will start a kickstarter project asap because I am sure the whole Y510p community is waiting for this graphic boost ;-)

I have designed an adapter for the ultrabay slot to plug desktop graphic cards into a Y510p. The BIOS starts with "Unauthorized Slave vga ...". Need help for a new BIOS without PCIe check on Ultrabay. -
