I bought myself a T420 today for £162 ($200), second hand.

The page said the laptop would have 8gb of ram, 256GB SSD, 900p screen and only has minor wear and tear.

I actually got the 8gb of ram and the 256SSD, I didn't get the 900p screen but instead the crappy 786p screen which pissed me off quite a lot.

Still, overall I was pretty happy until I looked at my Crystal Diskmark scores because the SSD has the speed of a fucking hard drive, just 100mb/s.
What the fuck is that.
I blame myself for it however since it did specify the brand of SSD which I didn't look up but for fuck's sake you expect some sort of high performance when you hear SSD. Fuck.

The laptop is scratched to fuck on the back and there's a small chip on the top left of the bezel.

The battery is poor, only lasting 45 minutes to an hour on medium brightness which has led me to order some chink battery from eBay as the official batteries would bring me over my budget.

Was it worth it /g/?

Personally, idk, the resolution is fucking cancer which inhibits me from having more than three windows up on the screen at the same time however the upgradability of the T420 will allow me to replace pretty much anything in the far future.
