Hello.

 

Is it possible to add a DVD drive to my Aspire ES1-512-C59L?

 

If so what parts do I require?

 

Thanks

    Hello,

     

    Have you removed the dummy ODD and seen a SATA connector in the bottom of the housing?

    I haven't attempted to do that yet unfortunately

    See the attachment. It's very easy. Only one screw to unscrew and you could remove the dummy ODD.
