I recently bought an Aspire 5 A515-54-58ZU
Which includes 256SSD and comes with a HDD upgrade kit (The harness and screws no HDD/SSD included)
I would like to know if this model comes with an extra slot for another SSD?
It isn't mentioned when you go to the website for more info: go.acer.com/hddupgrade
Thank you.

Yes, that's correct, 256GB SSD is a M.2 SSD.Jim49 said:MMAUS wrote:- " Which includes 256SSD and comes with a HDD upgrade kit " is the "256SSD" actually M.2?0 -

You need a cable( Part number:50.HGLN7.003) and a bracket including screws.Jim49 said:Saw the video of how to do this on you tube. Mine didn't come with the kit. Like to know where to get one from. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiadRhJ70Rs&list=FLeVveOFHa2De5qXFGpOdLcg&index=2&t=0s
HD Bracket Part number: 33.HGLN7.001
4 screws to secure HDD to bracket Part number:86.TDY07.003
4 screws to secure the assembly to main body Part number: 86.GDEN7.001

I would suggest you to get the cable and use some non-conductive material to secure the HDD in the bay.0 -
Will this work for Acer 515-44-R41B? They look like identical bays.brummyfan2 said:You need a cable( Part number:50.HGLN7.003) and a bracket including screws.

I'm looking at this part 42.HGLN7.SV1 which appears to have everything besides 4 more screws, I'll need 4 for mounting bracket to laptop and 4 for mounting bracket to SSD. The kit only has 4 and I'll need 8. It appears that the chassis/layout on the A515-44 and A515-54 are the same. I'm trying to find out if I'm correct. Below is a pic of my HDD/SSD bay.MTmann said:Will this work for Acer 515-44-R41B? They look like identical bays.

I actually found another kit what includes all 8 screws and looks like the original one from the video. Can you confirm if this will fit the A515-44?? 42.HEEN2.SV1MTmann said:I'm looking at this part 42.HGLN7.SV1 which appears to have everything besides 4 more screws, I'll need 4 for mounting bracket to laptop and 4 for mounting bracket to SSD.

It looks like the bracket and cable are identical between the A515-44 and the one Brummyfan2 posted.
