    Recently, I bought a ThinkPad X1 Carbon (3rd gen). I would like to upgrade its mSata (128G).

    I found this one on at Amazon:

    Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB mSATA 2-Inch SSD (MZ-M5E250BW)
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TGIVTP2/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

    Then I found this thread at Lenovo.
    https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/X-Seri...ading-ram-ssd-on-x1-carbon/td-p/827961/page/3

    The two links seem to have different mSata in size. Can anyone tell me which one is right?

    Thanks and regards.

    You will need an 2280 M.2 SSD to upgrade your X1 Carbon, to be exact.
