    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    Are you using the front USB-C or the rear USB-C socket provided by the DisplayPort to USB-C daughterboard 01AJ950? Maybe only the latter actually provides an output signal?

    Multi-NVMe (m.2, u.2) adapters that do not require bifurcation

    [Edit - mistakenly posted about Glotrends PA41 card which requires bifurcation] I imagine the Glotrends PA40 Quad M.2 PCIe X8 3.0 NVMe adapter card would downgrade to x4 upstream (to CPU) and share the same across the the four drives. Quite expensive though. Based around an ASM2824.

    m920q, NVIDIA T1000 gpu not detected, riser issue?

    Out of interest, if you compare your two risers, can you actually spot any differences? I'm just wondering what could possibly be different and whether I should buy another riser in case I'm having the same issue.

    I can't 100% confirm this but one option might be to fit a 2nd DisplayPort using part 01AJ937, which looks like this: In the hope that this too would run 4096x2304@60Hz. There's also a similar USB-C display daughterboard 01AJ950: Note the display-like symbol printed on the rear backplate /...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    Just in case you missed it, there is also the option of soldering just 2 resistors onto your M920q motherboard and then using a "PH45" dual M.2 adapter via the PCIe x8 slot: Badger707 GitHub issue #1 - [PH45 card] is working perfectly I have done this on an M920q using only a standard...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    More results from my journey to add an M.2 USB card: From before: Both USB cards worked on the bifurcated M920q with the passive PCIe x8 M.2 socket. Neither USB card worked with the PH45 PCIe x8 to dual M.2 sockets. So I thought I'd try a different "TISHRIC" PCIe x8 to dual M.2 socket card as...

    M720q: newer, more power efficient CPUs - useful if barely loaded but powered up 24/7 can upgrade to i7-9700T - but make sure you have 130W PSU, consider using the better heatsink from M920x/P330 can support up to 64GB DDR4 PCI x8 slot could support an additional M.2 NVMe drive this is in...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    I've traced some of the connections from the Lenovo proprietary PCI slot to the x16 PCIe socket on 01AJ940 and the x4 PCIe socket on the 01AJ929. See attached, zipped ODS file for details; it should open in Excel or Google or OpenOffice, etc. The x4 riser 01AJ929 does seem to present the clock...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    Following on from my own post, and in relation to my 'need more USB!' journey, it seems there two more options: Use the x1 lane from the WiFi/WLAN E-keyed socket via a E-key to M-key converter. Maybe reinstall the WiFi/WLAN card in the dual M.2 riser using an M-key to E-key converter. Total...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    As far as I know, there are only PCH options: B360 and Q370. Intel Ark reports PCI express options for both as: "x1, x2, x4" The Intel 300 Series Chipset Family PCH documentation, Section 3 "Flexible I/O" talks about how the PCH lanes can be configured in various ways, e.g. AHCI/SATA or GbE or...

    Lenovo Thinkcentre/ThinkStation Tiny (Project TinyMiniMicro) Reference Thread

    Hi all, I've just joined in the hope of collating more data on quite why the bifurcation mod described at Badger707's github, issue #1 only half works for me. I already had an M720q running as a home NAS & thin client but recently ventured into the world of home automation. Unfortunately I...
