    I understand that English may not be your first language, because your post is hard to read clearly. Google Translate?

    What are you asking?

    im guessing what gateas is saying is can he use a 280 card in a m57tu which as far as i can remember is roughly 3 years old and was most probly supplied with a 8800GTX/9800GTS/9800GT

    Maybe he wants to know if he can upgrade his laptop which already HAS a GTX 280m- then NO, the GTX 280m is the latest and best card for the mxm standard (2.1. "HE") and the M570TU. There is no better card for that slot available...

    we got there in the end :)
    as Tirenz said,the 280m is the latest card that can be used so sadly no further upgrade available.

    Unfortunately not, the mini-pcie SSD uses the pcie connector but it is wired up as SATA, so no computer that doesn't come with an mpcie ssd will ever work with one.
