I need the optical drive part number for my new Aspire E5-573-5653, I bought it for my son without realizing it did not have one. I would love to buy it and install it. Thanks.
I have contacted an Acer technician. I hope he can help you (not the same department).
I understand your frustation ... we have not this problem in Europe.
