Memory Upgrade for Lenovo ThinkPad T450s Laptop, Upgrade ThinkPad T450s Memory with 100% compatible T450s Lenovo Laptop Memory RAM modules from memorystock.com. I am about to get a T450s from eBay. From the description, it has 16Gb m2 drive and 500Gb 2.5 spin drive. IBM and Lenovo ThinkPad laptop. According to some specification pdf the T450s will be able to run with a 16GB DDR3L memory (instead of the 8GB), resulting in 20GB memory in total. Does anyone has more information on that? Does anyone know what 'available April 2015' means (I dont assume they are changing the hardware)?
