Took our Aspire 3 to another level, simply purchasing a $30, M.2 2280 256GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal SSD as OS drive. Followed your Win10 USB setup. Allocated the HHD to as additional storage drive. Zips fast and now works like a charm. Love the no frills tech mechanic explanations. Thank you!

Thank you very much for your video. Other videos worked with older models that still had those neat access doors. This one toild how to remove the back and the hard drive bracket. Would have been difficult to figure out without your easy-to-follow video. Thanks again.

The usual straightforward explanation and work in real time. This makes the website superior. For people stating that there is no 2.5" SSD bay, as long as the SATA outlet in on the mobo and an SSD would not be be placed under any necessary screws it might be possible to remove posts and other impediments so that a SATA SSD would lie flat and be secured with double sided tape. Dale might disapprove of "plastic surgery" and if he does he will say so without ambiguity.

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.

With the Acer Aspire 3 PCs, the caddy and cable numbers depend on which version you have. The caddy shown in the video would not fit in my A315-58-M575 because the screw tabs are in different positions, Finding the correct matching caddy has proven difficult - Acer does not have the kits in stock.

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.

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?

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?
