Lenovo ThinkPad W540 laptop i7-4800MQ 32GB 128GB SSD 1TB HDD

Mobile workstation with dual storage

The Lenovo ThinkPad W540 is a 15.6-inch mobile workstation running Windows 10 Pro. It combines a 128 GB mSATA SSD with a 2.5-inch 1 TB hard drive for both speed and capacity. A quad-core Intel Core i7-4800MQ processor at 2.7 GHz and 32 GB of DDR3 memory handle demanding workloads. NVIDIA Quadro K1100M graphics with 2 GB DDR5 video memory support professional applications.

Suits engineers and creators needing ISV-certified

This laptop suits engineers, designers and analysts who rely on Quadro drivers for CAD, DCC or scientific software. The anti-glare Full HD panel and numeric keypad help during long sessions. Buyers who need a touchscreen, a higher-resolution panel or a thinner ultrabook chassis should look elsewhere. The optical drive adds weight that mobile-only users may not want.

Quadro K1100M with 2 GB DDR5 decides fit

The single specification that decides fit is the NVIDIA Quadro K1100M GPU with 2 GB of DDR5 video memory. It determines whether the system can run the ISV-certified drivers required by professional 3D and compute applications. If your workflow demands more video memory or a newer Quadro architecture, this unit will not meet that requirement.
