As far as I know, any 2.5" SATA laptop-sized drive will work. @@ -51,8 +56,25 @@ It's a Core2 Duo SL9600 model and Intel's datasheet doesn't show any maximum mem

Rumor is the X200T can take 2x4GB DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) or possibly DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600). -I ordered a Corsair 2x4GB DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) set and will post memtest86 results when I get it. -It's possible the memory won't work. +I ordered a Corsair 2x4GB DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) set. +I probably got bad modules as they're a bit finnicky, but I've managed to get 6GB reported in the BIOS so far by mixing them with OEM memory. +

+Apparently for technical reasons the X200T must take 2Rx8 memory; two ranks of eight chips, and for 8GB memory, 256MB per chip (divide 8192MB by 2 modules * 2 ranks * 8 chips). +

+I got in touch with eBay seller woosterpsu who's auctioning off an X200T to benefit the Electronic Frontier Foundation with 8GB RAM installed and reported in the BIOS. +The auction ends 2021-09-05, so get it if you can. +The seller sent me an image of the installed memory: a Hynix 4GB 2Rx8 PC3-10600S and a Dell P/N SNPX830DC/4G, both scavenged from other laptops. +These are confirmed working in a Core2 Duo L9400 X200T. +

Stylus
