I have 2 questions: The First One: I still remember that back to the days that Win8.1 came out with WDDM1.3, SLI just failed with newest Nvidia Driver at that time, cuz the new Nvidia Driver CANNOT modify the VBIOS on the 2nd Card to support WDDM1.3. And we can only Update VBIOS version to the one end with '3A' to solve this problem perfectly. But I just noticed that someone has successfully flashback the VBIOS on the 2nd Card to the version end with '33'. And he's not saying that there's any problem with SLI. So does it confirmed that SLI works perfectly with both 1st & 2nd Card flashed modified VBIOS version end with '33' on newest Win10, newest Nvidia Driver, UEFI??? I Also remembered that BEFORE the version '3A' came out, we have to use old driver to enable SLI on Win8.1, but it won't perform perfectly on some games such as DOTA2, but on others games it seems no problem at all. So is there anybody can confirm that double '33' version modified VBIOS performed perfectly on DOTA2, Win10 RS, newest Nvidia driver????? I asked one of my friends who knows a Lenovo customer service guy, and he just told me that it's impossible to enable SLI without the '3A' version on any windows version after win8.1. So, is there anyone have a modified '3A' version 4 the 2nd Card????? The Second One: I wanna know is there any chance to remove the whitelist on UltraBay interface just like the one on Mini PCI-E interface??? If there's any one can do it, PLZ pay attettion to the other topic named 'Y510p UltraBay graphics card'. The author successfully connected an R9 NANO via UltraBay interface with full bandwidth on PCI-E 3.0 x8, and that's freaking AWESOME!!! But it stuck on some problems too, the system won't start up with ANY Nvidia Card, ANY BIOS version. And it even won't start up with ANY AMD Card on 3.05 or higher BIOS version. Just like there's a whitelist banned the unauthorized devices on mini pci-e. Since the motherboard soldered a hardware SLI Bridge on UltraBay interface, an unsuccessful trying to Start SLI between a mobile nvidia GPU and a desktop GPU may also the reason. Is there anybody has any idea to solve this problem????? This solution with UltraBay is just what I'm looking for for many years, I just don't wanna see it failed after waiting 4 years and eventually someone has already made a half success on it. I truly hope that it can be used on my Y500 and it can connect a Nvidia Card. Anyone who can solve this problem, I would rather to buy a beer 4 him/her, cuz u guys may have saved a lot of money not only 4 me but also all the Y-series users. With the x8 PCI-e bandwidth, i think that even connect a Nvidia Titan XP won't suffer from a serious loss of bandwidth, and i7-3630QM, i7-4700MQ etc. r still powefful enough for pc gaming. So that I suppose that Y-series can still fight in next 2-3 years before the CPU powerhouse or MEM bandwidth gets outta date 4 PC gaming. And it just saved a lot of money which was supposed to be used to buy new desktop CPU, motherboard, memory, etc.

Brvao, man. This is exactly what I'm looking 4 4 all these years. And it seems like u got stuck on the Nvidia Card won't start up problem. Tesla said that he has asked an experienced bios modder, and I think the modder pointed out that the motherboard soldered hardware Nvidia SLI bridge is one of the points. Have u tried remove all SLI-link on that interface to avoid it try to start SLI??? On the other hand, I do believe there's a whitelist in the BIOS on UltraBay interface part just like Mini PCI-E. Cuz u can't start up with an AMD card when u r using higher version bios, and u just Cannot start with GT755M and GT650M SLI. I asked someone who can contact with an Lenovo Customer Service guy, and he told me that when Bios start up, Bios Do need to read sth like Hardware ID which Write in VBIOS on the 2nd Card to start up. (By the way I remember that back to the time Win8.1 came out with WDDM1.3, SLI Just Failed cuz Nvidia Driver cannot update the 2nd card VBIOS to support WDDM1.3, it sucks.) And I do believe the omnipotent svl7 can remove it just like Mini PCI-E too , but unfortunately it says that he is 'Retired Staff' at this time. Is there anybody who can contact him to have a look into this problem??? I think that masquerading a desktop card such as GTX1080 etc. by modified VBIOS into a GT650M/750M/755M is not the corrcet way to solve this problem. A totally remove of the start up check whitelist and a totally remove of all SLI-link on UltraBay may be the correct way. Any way, just plz don't give up bringing Nvidia Card to this project. F*ck the Lenovo for betraying all the customer who believed in its Ultrabay Module, and thank godness your project came out. And forgive my English 4 any grammatical error or misuse of words, I'm not a native English-speaker.
