ANSWERED: Can I do this to a T400 question?
Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2016 1:52 pm
I have a 2765-T6U That I would like to use with SDHC cards. Unlike my CTO unit this one appears to be equipped with a expresscard 54?
Is there a flush mount reader that I can leave installed
OR
Can I buy/swap parts from the CTO that had a built in reader?
SWAPPING the card reader from a "typical" Intel GPU machine is a ROYAL PITA. There is just not a lot of things left to take off of the MoBo after you get to it. 7 saw it immediately and loaded the drivers. While I was in there I upgraded the CPU to a 2.8 CPU. It was dirt cheap and came with Artic Silver. Dont forget the bezel that snaps in as the self closing door will not work with the new reader.
Thanks
Ron
