Hi all,
I am looking to upgrade my laptop lenovo y510p storage. It has a 24gb msata ssd. Nothing fast. I was thinking about replacing it with the samsung 840 evo msata. However whats the gain or loss if I take it all out and put in just a 840 pro SSD? And the HDD in a caddy. What's the best way. I am a photographer and work mostly in Photoshop cs6 and lightroom. Occasional gaming.

I don't think, in the situation that you describe, that the cache SSD is adding anything - especially as it is probably slower than the new SSD. I'd be inclined to remove it.

Yes I found that out in time thankfully. I have decided to just swap the internal HDD with a samsung evo ssd. The HDD I can add later with a caddy/ultra-bay.

Shall I remove the m2 ssd onboard all together? Don't see the point of having a cache ssd for another SSD. What do you suggest?
