Lenovo X240 How Many Ram Slots
Hi all,
I'm considering buying an X240, mostly because of the screen resolution. One downside of the X240, is that it only accepts 1 single SODIMM, which to now were only available up to 8GB sizes. I do need more than that to process the datasets I use.

They appear to have a module code IMM2G64D3(L)SOD8AG which appears to be the first 16GB, and can do DDR3-1600. They may become available by mid April at $300
This post suggests it won't work...

On the other hand, it was 'undocumented' that 2 8GB sticks could be used in X2xx series back in the day..
Adding a bit more info
A person from intelligentmemory says that a Haswell machine will not work with these chips, unless a change of the memory reference code, which is part of the BIOS. It is not yet 100% sure if it can be fixed by a BIOS update or not. On March 10, 2014, they did have a customer make it work on an Ivybridge E by modifying the memory reference code. Lenovo could work with Intel, and change this code.
Any ideas? Any Lenovo and/or Intel folks around?

The X240 only supports a maximum of 8 GB RAM because there is only one slot and no RAM soldered to the system board. Players shouldn't have to chase online casinos for winnings that are rightfully theirs. Good Lenovo Thinkpad X240 Ram Slots casino sites pay players straightaway. If a casino has a history of delayed payouts, avoid them.
Has anybody tested these? Does the BIOS allow for 16GB?http://www.intelligentmemory.com/dram-m ... 3-so-dimm/
