T440 alternative with optical drive/extra hdd slot? I'm looking to buy a good laptop, and the research led me to thinkpads. The only problem - I was planning to swap an optical drive for an extra hard drive (for SSD + HDD configuration), but T440 lacks an optical drive to begin with.Are there good alternatives that would work with SSD + HDD. 1x 2242 SATA III (B key) RAM. 1x 4GB DDR3, 1600MHz OS. More Lenovo ThinkPad T440p configurations - 14 laptops. The Lenovo ThinkPad T440p can be configured in many different ways through Lenovo's web shop. Is integrated in the M.2 slot, and has a price in the online store of 42 Euros ($60).

2. Lenovo Thinkpad T440p M.2 Slot Adapter

Hello,
I have been planning to add a 240GB/256GB SSD to the spare M.2 Slot on my motherboard (2242) - T440P

Lenovo Thinkpad T440p M.2 Slot I7

I have narrowed down my options to some options:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Transcend-TS24 ... ers&sr=1-2
https://www.amazon.co.uk/KingDian-240GB ... ers&sr=1-7
https://www.amazon.co.uk/XuBa-Solid-Lap ... rs&sr=1-57

Lenovo Thinkpad T440p M.2 Slot Adapter

The XuBA Drive and Kingdian drives are £10 cheaper than the transcend, and all m.2 2242's with SATA 3 interface are more expensive than standard SSD's.
I just want to check: A) will all three of these drives work, or will i face dificulties with them working?
and B) is thr transcend that much better than the cheaper ones? They are all low cost brands as far as U know?
Thanks very much.
