I. Get to know about mSATA SSD and 2.5 inch SSD
Currently, SSD hasMSATA SSDAnd2.5 inch SSDSSD.
1. mSATA SSD is connected using the mSATA interface, which is small in size and suitable for the installation of laptops with the mSATA interface. Many new computers now have mSATA interfaces, some of which are SATA2 3 Gb/s and SATA3 6 gb/ s. The T430 mSATA interface is SATA2 3 Gb/s.

After the mSATA hard disk is installed, the original hard disk and the optical drive can be used at the same time. Generally, the mSATA solid state disk is used as the system disk, and the operating system and application software are installed. The startup speed and software running are fast. Use the original hard disk as a data disk. However, the price of mSATA is higher than that of 2.5 inch SSD.

Ii. Install mSATA SSD solid state drive for T430
I bought a block Jixing LMT-128M3M 128G SSD mSATA SSD. The installation steps are also very simple.

Remove the battery of the laptop and unplug the power. Remove the cover of the memory stick and mSATA slot, and the mSATA slot is next to the memory.

Insert the mSATA hard disk into the slot and tighten the screws. (Use the original screws in the machine. You do not need to configure the screws separately ).

System Disk + HHD data disk + Optical Drive. The system of the original hard disk can also be retained. Once the mSATA SSD system fails, you can modify the startup sequence and switch it to the system of the original hard disk for use (we recommend that you install the mSATA SSD disk, the operating system of the original hard disk is retained ).
