1. I second this, I also have X1C 3rd Generation, and would be very interested in a m.2 SSD with 1TB on it.
(disappointed that Samsung has not come out with one yet).
2. Does the Sandisk X400 support ACHI, which is *required* for X1C 3rd Generation?
(specifically, the X1C 3rd Generation *does*not* support NVMe).
3. fyi, the Anandtech review did not specify if this X400 support ACHI.

The X400 is a SATA SSD, so it uses AHCI.

Just a heads up, Samsung may be shipping its SM961 (NVMe) 1 TB SSD for M.2 shortly.

***BUT the X1 Carbon Generation 3 *CANNOT* use this SM961 (NVMe), since X1C3 is stuck with the ACHI SSD interface and cannot use NVMe SSD.
(For the record, This SM961 (NVMe) should be compatable with X1 Carbon Generation 4).

1. Anyone tried the 1TB Sandisk X400 (PCIe / ACHI) on the X1 Carbon 3rd Generation (2015)?
My own X1C3 SSD is becoming very full, seriously looking for a 1 TB replacement...
2. Here is the latest Tom's Hardware evaluation of this X400 1 TB:
