Question regarding installing dvd disk drive

Purpletalon55 · April 2016

I was wondering what disc drives will fit in the E15 E5-574G-54Y2. As it doesnt come with one but I would like to add one and am not sure which to get.

Thanks for any assistance

You need to remove the dummy first, shine a light inside, and make sire you have a Sata socket for the optical drive.

You will need

1. ODD Module KO.00807.020

1. ODD BEZEL W/BUTTON/LED (SUPER MULTI) 42.MVHN7.001

1. ODD BRACKET 33.MLQN7.001

The drive is easy, but people are selling the front bezel and the little bracket for $45+.

I would pull out the drive dummy, go to ebay and look at drives out of Acers. Determine where the retaining bracket will be on your laptop, using the dummy.

Something like this,
