Thinkpad S540 and NGFF SSD

Question

I am planning to buy a S540 the next days.
If I'm right, the 16GB NGFF SSD option is based on SATAIII and not PCIe.
May plan was to replace the 500GB HDD with a Samsung SSD, which I use at the moment in my old laptop.
Now the question.
Does it make sense from the performance point of view, to buy a larger NGFF SSD for the OS or should I use the classic SSD ?
Because both are based on Sata-III, I would expect no difference, but maybe I am wrong.
thanks,
Markus

Answer 1

Does your SSD + USB adapter work on other computers?
When you say it "doesn't find the drive" are you referring to BIOS, Windows Explorer, Disk Management, or ???
If you can see it in disk management, but not explorer, it probably needs to be initialized (in disk management).
It could also be a power issue.
More info needed....
