What about intel turbo cache? or is that a CPU feature? Maybe thats what i got confused.

"In" as both inside the 1530? No - no room at the Inn. You can replace your HD with an SSD. You could use an enclosure and setup the HD as an external drive. Not sure if it'll work well as a swap partition for Linux. You could try a quality USB key for the swap.
Please let us know if you try it.
Cheers!
