ThinkPad T490 with 8 GB DDR4

This 14-inch laptop ships with Windows 11 Pro and an Intel Core i5-8365U processor. It includes 8 GB of DDR4-2400 memory and a 128 GB PCIe NVMe SSD. The anti-glare IPS panel delivers a 1920 x 1080 resolution at 300 nits brightness. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles visual output using shared system memory.

Suited for office work, not heavy storage

The quad-core CPU and 8 GB of RAM handle everyday productivity, web browsing and video calls. Wireless-AC 9560 with Bluetooth 5.1 provides modern wireless connectivity. Buyers who need more than 128 GB of local storage should consider a different configuration. The integrated graphics are not intended for demanding 3D applications or gaming.

128 GB NVMe SSD decides fit

The single 128 GB PCIe NVMe drive determines whether this unit meets your capacity requirements. No mechanical hard drive is present and no additional storage is included. Verify that this space is sufficient for your operating system, applications and active files before purchase. Memory is fixed at 8 GB DDR4-2400 with no upgrade path mentioned.

Questions about this item

What memory type and speed does the T490's DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM require for an upgrade?

The laptop uses DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM modules. Match this speed and form factor when adding or replacing the 8 GB of installed memory.

Can the existing 128 GB PCIe NVMe SSD stay installed if I add a second M.2 drive?

The 128 GB PCIe NVMe SSD occupies one M.2 slot. A second M.2 drive can be added only if the chassis provides an additional M.2 slot.

How do I confirm the Intel UHD Graphics 620 is active after setting up Windows 11 Pro?

Open Device Manager, expand Display adapters, and verify Intel UHD Graphics 620 is listed without error icons.
