Business ultraportable with NVMe storage

The Lenovo ThinkPad T470s is a 14.0" laptop built for mobile professionals who need a lightweight Windows 7 Pro machine. It pairs an Intel Core i5-6300U processor with 12GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD. The matte IPS display resolves at 1920 x 1080 and omits touch input.

Thermals and acoustic profile

The low-power i5-6300U runs up to 3.0GHz inside a chassis weighing between 2 and 2.9 lbs, allowing fan noise to stay subdued during typical office workloads. Solid-state storage eliminates mechanical drive vibration and cuts boot time by nearly 3X versus a hard disk. File transfers reach around 200 MB/s compared with 50-120 MB/s on rotating media.

Connectivity and expansion

Thunderbolt over USB-C delivers up to 40 Gbps for docks, external GPUs or high-speed storage. Four USB ports and Bluetooth 4.1 handle peripherals without a hub. The integrated fingerprint reader and 720p webcam support secure login and conferencing. Buyers who need a touchscreen, larger display or discrete graphics should consider other models.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 512GB NVMe SSD and which step do people skip?

The drive is already fitted in the M.2 PCIe slot; the step people miss is enabling the NVMe option in UEFI before cloning or restoring an image so the drive appears as a boot target.

What part of the 12GB DDR4 memory will need replacement first?

The 8GB SO-DIMM slot is the only user-replaceable module; the soldered 4GB cannot be swapped, so any future fault or upgrade means changing that single stick.

At what point does the i5-6300U hit its sustained-use limit?

The dual-core 3.0GHz CPU throttles when its thermal envelope is reached, typically during long compiles or video encodes, capping turbo before the 40Gbps Thunderbolt link saturates.
