    hi,
    I am buying this notebook, thanks to all the people in this forum that lead me to that conclusion.
    I wll be upgrading ram: 4 GB PC3-12800 DDR3 (1 DIMM) (so as to have a total of 8gb)
    and will also be upgrading the hard drive to a SSD 256gb sata 3.
    Where do you advise me to to buy and which brand for the ram and ssd. that are compatible with lenovo w530.

    You already have a thread on this in the SSD section, i'm gonna leave this one open and close the one in SSD. Please refrain from crossposting in the future, it's explicitly written not to do so in the forum rules.

    As for my answer, gonna quote myself from your other thread:
