Hi, I have an SSD drive to upgrade my Acer Aspire 3 but when opening it up it doesn't have the connector or caddy to hold the 2.5" SSD. There is space for the SSD but no connector - Is it possible to purchase one and if so, where does it connect to?? I have photos of the inside as well
I have the Aspire 3 A315-56-502L and it seems to be exactly identical to this with the one unfortunate difference I found is that it doesn't come with the 2.5" caddy or sata cable inside it
I have an acer Aspire A315-54 with one slot of ram in the motherboard with 8GB DDR4 in the support website described that the maximum of ram can use is 12GB but when I plugged an 16GB ram stick it worked fine without any lags or problems.
Just got a new Acer Aspire 3 A315-56-5048 and it does NOT have the HDD caddy and cable. Apparently product policy is getting cheaper too like with other manufacturers.
Very helpful video, i had problem putting back the battery connector and almost broke it so i think its better to install ram without battery removal, thats my opinion, very helpful video and thanks a lot😀😀
Really glad for this video, but stupid me did order the same ssd, just to discover, that there is no caddy or cable in mine. Where to buy these? Thanks in advance.
I have the same style laptop. I want to increase my SSD. However, I dont understand what that caddy thing is? If i just want to upgrade my 256 SSD, I dont have to replace the caddy right? I can just swap out mine with "Crucial P5 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD Gen 3 x4" without touching the caddy area Also , how many ram slots are in this model? I have 12gb for my laptop but unsure if its dual channel or not
On laptops with multiple drive options, I personally if doing a clean install would only use the one drive and wait to install the second drive. This way, I wouldn't confuse myself as to which drive is which on the "custom installation" screen of the Windows 10 installer when identifying my drives, especially if each drive is the same capacity. After the clean-install and I run the updates, then I'll install the next drive and add it in via Disk Management.
I want to add some ram so I can run a newer video game. Will the ram alone be enough to run it? It fits on my hard drive just trouble running the program with the stock ram

Hello, watching your video and it was very explanatory. I have such a notebook, I am very satisfied. My question is, where do I find the base to attach the SSD to the notebook? Do you have a link that can refer me to the purchase? I live in Brazil.
Hello and thanks for this video. I have an aspire 3 a315-53-389v model. Can i upgrade with wifi ac to ax for this computer? And can you make a video on how to clone from HDD to SDD? My computer is using HDD and i want to convert to M2 without losing my data. Hope to hear from you soon.

Dumb question: If I have the Aspire 3 (store bought) with Windows 11 already, and I just wanted to add extra ram and ssd would I need to reinstall Windows 11 to make the computer work?
Hi I have a question so I have a newer acer aspire 3 and it is kind of different inside. It doesn't have the ssd tray and the sata cable. Can you tell me where I can find a sata cable. And thanks for the vid it was helpful.
Late response but no, the GPU is really mediocre and combine it with the 8gb of ram and even CSGO runs at 40fps in low full hd. I'll soon try it with 16gb tho.
Just did this to my mine. When powering up, the screen pops up with, No bootable Device. Dod the start up with F2, Enabled the F12 Boot Menu, restarted, same deal. What do I do?
yesterday i just trying to put my old 2.5 hdd into Acer Aspire 3 A314-22, but i can't put back the back cover, it causing flexing. I already watched your video to see the caddy. Sorry for my English
I've got an Asus with the Ryzen 5 3500U and Vega 8, and it's such a similar setup to this... 4GB on-board (LPDDR4? don't know frequency) and came with 4GB SODIMM DDR4. I also upgraded to 2666 but don't know if I should have gone with 2400? But more importantly, I convinced a coworker to get an Aspire 3 A315-56-594W for $350... a huge steal! With that being said, I don't know what clock speed she might want for RAM if she upgrades. Won't be used for gaming or anything weird. I thought these i5-1035G1s used 3200MHz LPDDR4. Was there a reason you went with 2666MHz in the SODIMM slot?
Hi. If you go into your task manager, click on performance tab, choose memory on left. It will show the speed of your ram on board, among other information. Thx
@@CadillacComputerCenter Eh... Found my original photos, was 2666 and upgraded to 16GB 2666 but TM still says 2400 so wasn't sure if it was the LPDDR4 or just a generic setup configuration. Anyway, I'll get a look at one of those A315-56-594w laptops tomorrow hopefully! Kinda jealous because price was $200 less than my similar Ryzen Asus!
I have this laptop , 256GB SSD and 500GB HDD . When I'm trying to install Kali linux or other os , there is no partition disks showing . how do i fix that , thank you .

Had a problem with my m2 SSD I bought. The model I bought did not include any m2 ssd, but it has a slot for it. So I bought one and attached it. It is not detected by Acer, even in bios. the slot shows empty. With Windows setup, it only detects the current hard drive i have (no ssd). The SSD is functioning as used an m2 sata to usb connector and it is detected in Windows. Tried to test if it is and it is. Just when I use it internally, it doesn't detect. Is there something I missed?
Good day Sir!, I have a question, I'm also planning on upgrading SSD and RAM, Can I put 8gb 3200mhz in Acer Aspire 3 but the onboard RAM has only 2133 mhz clockspeed? thank you very much
hi. maybe it was better to partition the MVMe drive because usually no one puts 1T on windows drive and also its gonna be a problem to backup files when u need to install a windows again!
hei there, would like to upgrade my machine before 2021. Model is older, Acer A315-51-331E and has Core i3 inside. My intuition is that by replacing Ram (currently 4GB) with the most I can and replacing HDD (1TB) with SSD 500 gb at least would improve the laptop speed considerably. In case I go with it, what should I know before proceeding? Have little tech knolwedge and would like to basically transfer all content to the new SSD. Thanks for any answer!!
Simply increasing the memory to 8Gb you will see a performance increase with Windows 10 or 11. When Windows runs out of RAM it writes to the hard disk which slows the computer down significantly and kills SSD drives rapidly.
Hello i spit drink over the keyboard and now nothing works. I cant turn on Laptop because the powerbutton is mounted in Keyboard. How can i turn on the Notebook without the Keyboard? (so i can use with external Keyboard) Is there a workaround?
Hi, can you help me please? When I boot my computer, which is the same model of the video, I can't access the SETUP anymore, even pressing the f2 key, it just goes to a loop in the acer screen, if I don't press this key, it goes to a screen "boot option restored" where I have "reset system" and "continue boot", the first one reboot the computer and goes to the this same point, and the other one goes to screen it "operating system not found", I don't know what to do anymore, a friend of mine says that maybe resetting the setup removing the battery inside the notebook can resolve the problem of the setup doesn't show. Do you have any idea of what should I do?
make a clean windows install from usb maybe, check the cr32 round battery, sometimes it fails, check if the RAM is correctly inserted, disconnect the internal battery and reconnect it.
Hello! Is is Possible to connect this machine with E-GPU(I think yes with wifi-adapter removal but i need a confirmation about that) THanks in advance!
A shame to ACER in my country, which is Brazil. I bought a model A315-42G-R8LU that in the description of the site acer brasil informs that it has to put a hd ssd or common hd, however when opening the notebook to add another ssd sata for my surprise the flat adapter cable and neither the case, as shown in this video, although the model is different. absurd, in addition to the misleading advertising on the acer website in brazil, i will have to spend buying an adapter and a case and worse, i can't find this kit in my country. I always bought acer, but this time, it will be the last.
Hello Friend, how are you? I have the Aspire 3 A315-54-55WY model, but here in Brazil, this notebook does not come with the SATA 3 SSD support and does not come with the cable. Could you recommend a site to buy these accessories?
Hi, just scrolling the comments here. I had the same question basically concerning the caddy for the hdd/ssd drive... the cables are available. I've just ordered one on Aliexpress but the caddy, well... I suppose the thick double sided tape will do the job of holding SSD. The caddy is mostly useful when installing hdd. IMHO.
