*** SOLD LOCALLY ***
I have an extra W520 for which I need to find a new home. Was purchased off eBay along with another W520 in May 2012. Thought I would use it but it just sat in a dock in my office and was very rarely used and has never been out on the road. Now that my current job is ending I really don't need two W520's as nice & fast as they are.

Model: 4282-A61
Description: Lenovo Thinkpad W520, i7-2720QM quad-core, 15.6" FHD (1920x1080) LCD, Intel HD3000/NVIDIA Quadro 1000M 2GB Video, Intel Centrino 6300 WiFi, WWAN option, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure Chip, FPR, Camera, 9c Li-Ion, and a DVD Multi-Drive burner in the UltraBay. For storage it has original 500GB OEM Seagate 7200 rpm in the drive bay plus a mSATA OCZ Nocti 120GB SSD in the internal slot acting as the OS boot drive. RAM has been upgraded to 16GB (4 x 4GB DIMMs) using 2 additional Crucial DIMMs.

Accessories: includes a single 9-cell battery in good condition and one 170 watt AC adapter. To connect bare 2.5" drives directly to the W520's convenient combo eSATAp port a short accessory cable (from Monoprice) is also included.

I also have a ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3 (Type: 4338-30U) in excellent condition available for $155 shipped in continental US. The Mini Dock comes with another 170 watt AC adapter and with a pair of keys. Dock was used in my office for a couple of months but as I was only in the office once or twice a week it got very little use. Dock will come packaged in the OEM box.

Software: will have a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and has COA for Windows 7 Home Premium. Can also install a fully activated copy of Office 2010 Professional (but product key and disks not included). If you want I can include a copy of the official Lenovo Win 7 HP recovery disks (I bought these separately).

Warranty: has a Lenovo onsite warranty that runs to 2014-09-25 plus the ThinkPad Protection Service upgrade covering any accidental damage during warranty.

Will post photos when I get a chance but the condition is very good with little keyboard shine and minor wear on the case and plastics. It runs great - quite fast with the mSATA SSD.
