The X220 doesn't have an optical drive. I did that in an ext. hdd if that helps...

Ok, i found it. I had to take out the original hhd in order to be able to see my external HDD... But now i have another issue... Although the system "flies" (boots in 13'') after a couple of minutes it "freezes" for about a minute and then it rocks again with no other issues or freezing again. This is happening though consistantly every time i reboot.. Any ideas? Do you think has to do with the SSD?
