Hi, Acer community

 

Can anyone answer me which kind of M.2 SSD I can install in my laptop. I know that there is M.2 slot to install SSD, but I suspicious what kind of SSD can be appropriate. I couldn't find in web the answer, so I hope that community can help me.

Hello

I have an identical laptop as yours (same suffix 71ZL)

I think any M2 2280 -SSD will work with it, I am using a Samsung 960EVO to store Windows.

Which means it supports both SATA SSD and NVMe SSD on M2 slot.

 

Make sure you update the BIOS to the latest version (up to now is 1.12) for better NVMe support (from BIOS v1.03++), this is quite easy and take only few minute.

 

Note: the screw for the SSD is not preinstalled and also not available in SSD bundle. You will need to buy it separately or ask the SSD seller if they can give you one, the screw type is M2x3mm. Another way is using the one of the Upper-left USB & card reader small board nearby, inside the laptop (you will know what I mean after opened it up) but this is not recommended.
