A Lenovo ultrabay is an expandable slot on Lenovo y400 and 500 laptops. From what I know it is a user accessible pcie 2.x slot. The limits of the ultrabay are mainly that it can only use the cards that Lenovo releases for its use, and when using an nvidia graphics card in SLI only one graphics card will be used when on battery.


Can you change your graphics card or get an external graphics card for your laptop I have an Acer Aspire 5552g?

More thann 3 quarter laptops cannot have there graphics card changed saddly. However, there are people out there who has a kit which allows you to hook a graphics card to a device and the device to go into your laptop. I would not recommend doing so. Laptops have the graphics chips soldered directly onto the motherboard, to save space. Unfortunately, during fault finding, reference is still made about your 'graphics card', assuming the system is a desk top. Repairs to a laptop graphics system, involves re-flowing the solder on the motherboard. Something which requires expensive equipment beyond the average repair shop.
