Is the Lenovo Y50 notebook using a mechanical hard drive? Or an SSD? Why can t I find it?

Dear Lenovo users, hello!

Y500 is basically a mechanical hard drive. And 5000 to 6000 computers generally don't use SSDs.

You can ask customer service for your specific requirements so that we can better serve you. If you need to buy a machine, please buy it through regular channels.

It's Y500, it's a mechanical hard disk, and the optical drive can be swapped into a solid state drive, but there are no corresponding accessories sold in China.

The Y50 has not yet been officially released, so there is no official information.

Dear Lenovo users, hello!

Under normal circumstances, you have 3 methods to refer to:

1.If you are going to buy an MSATA SSD, it is recommended to consult the after-sales service or check the disassembly diagram to confirm whether the model has a mSATA port and a reserved hard disk bay. If you have one, you can consider installing it.

2.If you are going to buy a SATA port hard drive, it is recommended that you check whether the computer has a built-in optical drive, you can choose to replace the optical drive, buy an optical drive to install the hard disk bracket, install the HDD in the optical drive slot, and install the SSD in the original hard disk slot.

3.In the above two cases, you can only remove the mechanical hard disk and replace it with an SSD.

In addition, we do not recommend that you disassemble and assemble the machine yourself for upgrades, as hardware upgrades may cause compatibility and other issues, and problems caused by disassembling the machine without permission are not covered by the warranty. It is recommended that you go to your local Lenovo service station to test the installation, and the service station staff will solve the problem for you.

Detach the optical drive or type I hard drive.

There is an impact, the speed will make you think that you used to use a mechanical hard disk purely stupid

Laptop with SSD hard drive.

Whether the laptop can install SSD hard disk depends on the interface of the computer hard disk, if the hard disk interface is not SATA interface, then the SSD hard disk cannot be installed; If the disk interface is SATA, you can select SSD to install based on the type of disk interface.

Step 2: Select the SSD according to the type of hard disk interface.

1. The optical drive bit interface is: , the hard disk bit interface is: , it is recommended to use the upgrade kit, the SSD hard disk is installed in the hard disk bit of the interface, and the original mechanical hard disk is installed in the optical drive bit, and the optical drive can be replaced as a mobile optical drive.

2. Two interfaces, after entering the fourth-generation Core platform, most fourth-generation Core laptops no longer use interfaces. Both the hard drive bay and the optical drive bay are interfaces. It is recommended to use the upgrade kit, the SSD hard disk is directly installed in the optical drive of the interface, and the optical drive can be used as a mobile optical drive.

3. Three interfaces, high-end laptops are already equipped with two hard disk bays, and an optical drive bay, and also support disk arrays. It is recommended to install the SSD drive directly in an empty space. You can also install two SSD hard disks to make a disk array, and the computer runs faster.

4. The standard interface is mixed with the mini interface, and some notebooks use one or more standard hard disk bays and one or more mini hard disk bays. The optical drive bit is also an interface. It is recommended to purchase a mini SSD hard disk or a standard interface SSD hard disk to install, of course, you can also use an upgrade kit to install the SSD hard disk in the optical drive position, and the optical drive is used as a mobile optical drive.

5. If you don't have an ultrabook or a thin and light laptop with an optical drive, install the SSD hard disk directly in the hard disk position, and remove the original mechanical disk to make a mobile hard disk.

The hard disk of this book is a 1T hard disk of the inch of 5,400 rpm.

5400 rpm, or 1T, it must be a mechanical hard disk. It is impossible to fit an inch mechanical hard disk on a notebook, so it must be an inch mechanical hard disk.

The mechanical hard disk used in notebooks is the largest size, and there are a small number of inches. But the inch is very small and the capacity is relatively small, less than 1t.
