    Yes, you can install a SSD. Make a Acer Restore Drive Install the SSD and boot from the recovery drive. You can either save your personal files first or connect the old HDD via usb and trasfer them later.

    thnx for the reply.I was wondering what ssd to buy. Samsung 750 evo (250gb version) is targeted.but then there is intel version. So i am a little bit confused here.

    I would buy the Samsung. I've bought a lot of them and have never had a problem.

    Backup first and restore later would be the most effective way. But if you purchase Samsung disk, you may get one built-in data migration software called Samsung Data Migration (SDM). It will help you transfer everything to target disk as well.
