Compact business desktop for office tasks

The ThinkCentre M73 arrives as a new system built around a 2.0 GHz quad-core Intel Core i5-4590T with 6 MB L3 cache. Four gigabytes of DDR3 1600 memory and a 500 GB 7200 RPM hard drive handle everyday productivity workloads. Windows 7 Professional 64-bit is pre-installed with Windows 8.1 Pro downgrade rights for legacy software compatibility.

Tiny form factor with integrated graphics

The chassis uses a compact design that fits behind a monitor or on a desk shelf while drawing power from a 65 W supply. Intel HD Graphics 4600 drives displays through the integrated video outputs without a discrete card. Gigabit Ethernet provides wired network connectivity at 10/100/1000 Mbps, and 802.11b wireless is available for basic Wi-Fi needs.

Expandable memory and storage options

Two SoDIMM 204-pin slots accept DDR3 modules, with one slot free for upgrades up to 16 GB total capacity. The SATA III interface supports additional hard drives or solid-state drives for more storage space. No display is included, so a separate monitor is required to complete the workstation.

Questions about this item

What does the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface limit the 500 GB HDD to in practice?

The 500 GB drive runs at SATA III speeds, so sequential throughput caps at the 6.0 Gb/s link rate rather than the drive's own 7200 RPM potential.

What physical space and memory module type does the M73 Tiny require for a RAM upgrade?

It uses two SoDIMM 204-pin DDR3 1600 slots; one is occupied by the 4 GB stick, leaving one slot open up to 16 GB total.

How is the 65 W power supply connected inside the Tiny chassis, and what step do builders often miss?

The 65 W unit is internal; the step often missed is seating the DC jack firmly into the motherboard header before closing the case.
