I'm glad someone finally made a video about this. I pleaded and pleaded with my local repair shop about the issues but they didn't believe me.
same problem with my Lenovo P51S
I also have the same exact model, now I am getting this same random issue with my SSD getting undetected
Thank you very much, sir! Fixed my T570 by soldering NVMe connector on the motherboard. Works perfectly!
Glad it helped!
Great video! I am having a similar problem with the Thinkpad P51. It is sad to see the quality of lenovos going down hill.
Hi thank you for the information was browsing through an auction site and saw one listed with the same issue seems this was a widespread issue.
Thanks bro, but I've noticed this particular model always has this problem, I've had 2 pcs like this and both gave me the same exact problem. I think it's a wide spread issue and Lenovo needs to get a look into into it
Had the same issue, thank you.
You're welcome!
ty man 🤝
Thanks for the info, but I need a picture of the connecter cable because the one I have has some actual cables cut and I don't know where most of them go, so I need one as reference.
Thanks for the video, it was well done. Unfortunately, I have the same problem and resoldering the port caused the ThinkPad to make a song with error code 0001 while booting if the hard drive cable is plugged in. I was careful but these connectors are so small that a human error can occur while trying to repair. I just gave up on it and removed the hard drive caddy.
For those with the same problem, the good news is you can still use another SSD in the WWAN port. You'll have to get a M.2 SATA SSD 2242.
I'd like to temporary fix the issue using the M.2 Sata. Any suggestion about how to copy my Windows on that SSD? I really don't know where to start from:I magine I need to use a working laptop to do that. And than, what?
check the Sata fuses near the connector, normally either 3.3v or 5v is blown after this effing chinOVO problem
Wow cool one
Can i use sata cable in nfc1 connecter hdd
Thanks.
Thank you for watching =)
Yeah same issue here. T580.
So flux seems to make things pretty easy. If I get some good flux and a small enough tip... Am I pretty safe doing this soldering job myself?
I had the problem and replaced the Mainboard! Now the replacement Board has failed as well I try and weld it! Thanks
on my LENOVO the keyboard was broken after about 4 month, no problem, they changed it in an LENOVO Store but since there was a shortcut somewhere, sometimes when connecting the LAN or the HDMI the monitor or internet just went OFF :/ ... i didnt go there imidiately since i need my computer every day. Now a year later i opened it and the connector between the HDD 500 Gig and the Computer is lose and disconnected. hope i can find a new one and they can repair it again. Cheers from Thailand, i am not very confident in the skills of the people here repairing, made my experiences in the past
3:58 What equipment, tools and chemicals you used? I want to fix my laptop too.. I have the same problem with that small SDD connector.
My T570 is having issue with ssd. It is not detected always. Sometime windows crash. I thought the issue exist in cable. good this video pop up.
This was another big disappointment to the supposed top tier quality Thinkpad brand, especially seeing that the P51s/T570 is an otherwise wonderful work laptop.
Hi! Nice video, what soldering iron did you use for that repair?
Everything we use is located in the link in the description but here : fm 2027 hakko
@@lapfix Thank you!
Tnx man I win €80 with this video❤❤
You WON!
Bro, i have 2102 detection error on storage device, thats the problem? The cable on the adapter, or you have another wy to solve it?
My T570 is currently in repair shop because of this. Guy that works there knew as soon as i said T570 drive not working. He said that he soldered dozens of those conectors on Thinkpads 😅
Exactly that was my issue. Now I don’t know if I should get an m.2 SATA SSD or should I find someone to do micro soldiering on my Mainboard? Can I even do it myself? I just have Standard Soldiering equipment an d 0 to no skills 😅
Literally happended to me yesterday. Only work around for me was that i had a 42mm m.2 sata ssd. Plugged that into the WWAN port and my P51s now boots windows 10 from that. Still miss the extra space i had with two drives though. Can i send mine in to get the connector fixed? Awesome vid by the way!
Yes, that is an alternative way to go. If you want us to look at it, we have all our contact information in the description for a mail in service. Thank you for your comment
2230 or 2242 which is it?
@@lapfix Hi there, I sent you an e-mail... looking forward for your precious support!
@@kenlgraham it must be a 2242, the only one can be mounted (as far as I know)😄
@@lapfix im moderately handy. Do you think this is something someone can do on their own?
Unfortunately, it's a known and widespread issue across Lenovo T570/P51s/T580/P52s models up to 05.2018. Also happened to my T580.
My work has many T580s and P52s and a bunch of them are having drive issues. I even had one connector just pop off inside the case. It's infuriating.
@henrychinaski39 hey, I just bought a refurbished T580 on eBay and I happened to have missed this quite big defect. How do you know that the issue happened up to 05.2018 and not after?
Hi my friend I have a laptop yoga 11e glimmer and it is not coming with hdd connector the question is how to know the suitable type of connector to install in my laptop
HP laptop introducing ribbon cable for sata connector not compatible after market connector
How much a repair like this on cost
The connectorhas got burnt by a short for the reason you explained. I'd like to buy new one and try to solder it. Any idea about the name and characteristics of the connector? And if I can find it on the internet?
Thanks
Did you find it i'm also searching for it
I found them at Mouser
I found at Mouser@@chalakhsoheib2184
I got the same P51s - with a I7-6600U - can I change the CPU ?
The cpu is soldered to the board, unfortunately no
Sir i have Thinkpad yoga 15 i change the hdd connector but still its showing hdd detection error. Even i have checked ssd is 100 percent ok
this happens to be a comon fault on these models
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Bought a 570 on Ebay sans HDD, and the ENTIRE hdd connector was ripped off the motherboard
Think I killed my motherboard trying to put a m.2 card in a NGFF slot
Yes still a problem with the Lenovo laptops, causes all types of problems when you think it's the HDD only to discover it's not the hdd but the connector, Lenovo are well aware of this problem but refuse to acknowledge this, real pity as the laptop are nice and light, but, unfortunately i did not do my homework on this one otherwise i would have steered well clear.
