A couple of T530 questions:
* Were (are) there any T530 models with Intel graphics (i.e., NOT nVIDIA) and a quad-core i7 processor?
* Were (are) there any T530 models with Intel graphics (i.e., NOT nVIDIA) and 4 memory slots?
* Is the 1920x1080 FHD display the same unit between a T520 & T530? I guess I'm really wondering here if it's safe to extrapolate the various (very favorable) reviews I've seen of the T520 FHD display to the T530 FHD display?
* What speeds are the SATA in the main hard disk bay and the mSATA bay? I've looked through the Lenovo "Detailed specifications - ThinkPad T530, T530i and W530" (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/pd024683), and it describes 6Gbits/second SSDs, but it doesn't actually say which bay they're installed in.
Thanks, -- Jonathan

Re: some T530 hardware questions
I can answer the 2nd and 4th question as the 4 memory slots were only created for the W530 Workstation not the T530 series. and with regards to the speeds listed (6Gbits/second) it is listed as SATA which only applies to the main drive not the mSATA. the site also says MicroSATA which are the mSATA devices. The intel i7 and intel graphics I have not seen but depending on what chip you have, you should be able to install a Core i7 into any thinkpad T530 motherboard, as long as it is PGA.
For the display, consult the BOM for both the T520 and the T530 and see if the numbers match
