loren: The Lenovo IdeaPad supports a 2.5” SATA slot - you should have no issue connecting the 870 EVO SSD. Should you have any questions or need assistance, please contact Samsung Memory Support. Call: 1-800-SAMSUNG (ask for Memory or press #, then 6 for Memory products) Available 9AM – 9PM EST (Mon-Fri) - Samsung Memory
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Great question! Yes it will work, from what it appears you have a 2.5" HDD slot so this 2.5" SSD will fit. You would need a "7+15 22pin SATA Hard Disk Drive 4pin Power Data Cable 2in1" for data transfer from the SSD to the motherboard and it includes power for the SSD as well on one cable. The power cable would plug into the motherboard. When looking up this cable, make sure you have connections available for these cables to plug into the motherboard. If you are replacing your HDD, you would just swap the existing cables into the SSD.
