ThinkPad T540P dual-core i5 laptop

This 15.6-inch Lenovo ThinkPad T540P ships with Windows 10 Pro, an Intel Core i5-4200M running at 2.60 GHz, 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 1 TB 2.5-inch hard drive. The 1366 x 768 LED panel, DVD-RW drive, webcam, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth complete a ready-to-use business notebook.

Replaces an older single-core or low-memory machine

The jump from a single-core system to this dual-core i5 with 8 GB RAM is worth it when daily tasks such as office suites, web browsing and video conferencing feel sluggish. Buyers who need more storage than 1 TB or a solid-state drive should look elsewhere.

Sustained office workloads on integrated graphics

Under continuous load the Intel HD Graphics 4600 shares system memory and the dual-core processor maintains steady clocks for document editing, email and browser tabs. The chassis dissipates heat without throttling during typical business hours, but heavy rendering or gaming will exceed its thermal envelope.

Questions about this item

Will a 2.5-inch 1TB hard drive fit the drive bay?

The laptop ships with a 2.5-inch 1,000 GB hard drive, so the bay accepts that exact form factor.

What is the correct order for installing the 8 GB DDR3 module and the 1TB hard drive?

Power off, remove the battery, open the service cover, seat the DDR3 module first, then secure the 2.5-inch drive, replace the cover and battery.

When will the 8 GB DDR3 memory need upgrading?

The system supports up to 16 GB DDR3, so you can add another 8 GB module later if workloads demand more RAM.
