Aspire V3-575T-51Q8 how to add SSD and save HDD?

Greg-7

I would like to have HDD and SSD in same time in my Aspire V3-575T-51Q8
And install Windows on SSD.

But I have few questions.

 

1. Is SSD/HD caddy must be 12.7mm thick? It will replace optical drive.

2. What 2.5'' SSD drive must be?  Is the 9.5mm thick SSD drive OK for laptop?

 

3. Can I install SSD on optical drive place? Or It must be installed on the HDD place?

 

4. Will I lost the license of my Windows?

 

5. Will I lost the warranty?

 

Thank you very much!

1. Not sure what you mean by replacing the optical drive with a SSD/HDD caddy, but follow the instructions for the caddy that MUST be listed to fit with your computer model!

2. 2.5 form factor is generally unversal size, as long as the hard drive says form factor 2.5, it will be fine for your laptop.

3. The SSD would prefer the faster port where the HDD space is, and the HDD in the optical drive space/caddy.

4. Assuming you have windows 10, you can clone your HDD and you will be fine, or if you want to just start over, get a Windows 10 ISO and erase all data and boot again from the ISO in a USB.

5. Your warranty should be fine. Though if the caddy breaks the part, it might cause problems, or yourself accedently breaking a part, which will also probably void it.
