use the 135 W when on the move and the 170 W with the docking station. Strangely enough, the docking station only comes with a 135 W power supply. When the W540 is ordered with a quad core CPU it is delivered with a 170 W power supply. Although Windows 8.1 still has some issues and not all applications are compatible yet it is worth it: the 2880×1620 resolution is amazing and the colors and the viewing angle are great. These days full HD is only available as a TN panel – if you want something better you need to go the high DPI route. Never buy a TN panel! With my previous laptop, a Lenovo T520, I went for the best at the time, a full HD IPS panel and it was worth every penny. But you can work around that and manufacture the padding yourself: However, if you do not buy your drive from Lenovo – which you are unlikely to do unless you have money to spare and do not care about the quality of your SSDs – you will not get the little plastic “thingies” that keep the drive firmly in place in the adapter (which is really a very poor design choice by Lenovo).

Fortunately that drive can be replaced with the Ultrabay Slim HD Bay Adapter IV which in turn can be equipped with any 2.5″ drive up to 9.5 mm in height. The W540 comes with a DVD drive, which is totally useless to me. Since the laptop can be equipped with two 2.5″ drives I went for that option instead (see below). The problem is that only really tiny SSDs of the 2242 (22 mm by 42 mm) form factor fit into the slot and those are scarce. Although that is not officially supported (Lenovo only supports 16 GB caching SSDs for magnetic hard drives which I am not exactly a big fan of), using a 128 GB M.2 SSD as a boot drive should work just fine. If you did not the slot remains empty and can be used for an M.2 SSD. One hosts the WiFi adapter, the other the WWAN adapter if you ordered that. If you wonder what made me choose the W540: read this.

Having made the switch from my trusty Lenovo T520 to the W540 here is my account of what works well and what does not.
