Yes, T450s is Broadwell based. The only hardware differences between the T450 and T450s are unrelated to anything which would cause this configuration to require different settings. The T450s has a smaller form factor, it has one 4GB ram chip soldered to the motherboard and one normal ram slot which can be upgraded, whereas the T450 has 2 changeable ram slots (but it also supports 20GB max vs 16GB in the T450), and the the T450s has a larger processor cache at 4mb vs 3mb in the T450. Also I'm not sure if the T450s can support a smart card or not. Those are the only differences. All of the most important hardware is identical in both machines.

The Intel CPU portion for both machines is a 5th generation i5 or i7 depending on which configuration you went with when you bought it but it irrelevant since they are both Broadwell generation processors.

hi, I found a new problem. when I try to wake up my t450s. It is blackscreen and there have several buzzers. I can just force reboot.

I run 10.15.4 with this configuration on a T450S.

I Only needed to change the SystemProductName to MacBookPro12,1 in the config.plist otherwise it "hangs" during the boot process.
