    Any internal 2.5" SATA3 HDD/SSD cable that physically fits inside the case will be fine. The ACER part number is  450.0E70A.0001 should fit and is available from places like Aliexpress. The HDD/SSD can be immobilized and protected inside the case with packaging antistatic foam so a metal bracket is not needed. Jack E/NJ

    If you have a 2.5" mechanical HDD in there now, you can add an m.2 SSD SATA3 or NVME card. SATA3 cards are generally less expensive than NVME cards. Samsung makes both types in their m.2 EVO series. You just plug them into to the m.2 slot on the mainboard. Google the keywords dsamsung evo m.2 A very big selection. With many prices. Jack E/NJ
