In the thinkpads I added a sata ssd to replace original 320gb or 500gb spinners. Either crucial or Intel,nothing fancy. For one of them I replaced the DVD drive with secondary 2tb HDD for photos / movies... Ah ultra bay, how much we miss thee :). The 420s (slimmer version) is basically as lightweight laptop as I need, but has great keyboard and easy modularity of drives memory battery etc. What a time it was to be alive!
My main laptop is ThinkPad t25 which is basically t470 with traditional keyboard layout. 512mb ssd. No room for secondary HDD.
My main desktop is an aging beast - amd fx8350 and rx470 8gb. Bunch of ssd and HDD drives at any given point :).
Speaking of storage, synology 918+ as Nas fwiw.
Bunch of other computers around such as ThinkPad e545 and e580, plus an intel nuc around every tv. None of it fancy anymore, I have no time left for complex vlans or VMs or breakable OS's, but computers are my hammer so there's plenty around :-)
