The mSATA SSD in my Thinkpad W530 was getting full,. So I tried to replace it
with a new larger one (Samsung EVO 860). I knew about the mSATA II vs III issue
and the BIOS AHCI setting. What I didn't expect was the laptop to slow down to a

Hi list,
After a recent upgrade I noticed that my system could not reboot into the new
4.19 kernel. So I rebooted into the kernel before that (4.18.0-3), which did not
work either. Booting into the version before that (4.18.-02) did work just fine.
It seems I hadn't rebooted after the previous up
