Recommended accessories?

#1 Post by axmaxwell » Sat Sep 01, 2018 8:46 am

Getting things together for my x230 tablet. I was wondering what are some other good accessories.

I was looking at an ultra bass Series 3 dock but wasn't sure if it was DVD rewritable or Blu-ray?

What I have so far:
Lenovo original ThinkPad branded laptop soft briefcase
The super rare Lenovo soft carry case for just the bare tablet
Extended life 18 plus battery
e-Machine upgrade : mini ITX, I7-4790K, 16gb ram GTX-1050tiLP
Home Desktop: I5-2500k, R9 390X, 24gb ram, 14tb storage
X230t: I7-3520m, 16gb ram, 128gb msata ssd, 2tb hdd

But could it be upgraded? I saw a Chinese seller on Ebay offering an ultrabase 3 blu ray drive for $90

Yes, Blu-Ray burners for the Serial Ultrabay Slim (which is the interface on the Ultrabase) do exist.
