Aspire V5-552p hard drive

I am looking to upgrade the SSD in my Aspire V5 (552p-x404 touch), but it recently came to my attention that some of these computers use 5mm slim hdds, which means the cavity might not accomidate a standard 2.5" by 7mm drive (like a samsung or WD). 

 

Can anybody confirm that this laptop can fit a 7mm SSD?

Here are the storage specs for your computer model and a list of HDDs that were tested to be compatible.  Based on that info, I think you could be confident that a standard 7mm SSD will fit.

That's exactly what I wanted to see! Thanks! Out of curiosity, where did you find those tables? Is there a maintenance manual available somewhere?

denkyuu,

 

The tables are top secret.  

 

The guy in this video wasn't talking about 5 mm.  He was trying to tell you that a 9.5 mm HDD won't fit.  But a 7 mm HDD will fit. 

 

So of course a 7 mm 2.5 inch SSD will fit too.
