I have an acer aspire v3-772g-9850 laptop and I want to install a ssd in the other slot,  however I can't find one? Please help.  I can find other brackets that go in the dvd drive bay but not a bracket that will fit in the extra drive bay (that is square) that is located on the bottom of the laptop.  I have seen the other posts of others asking the same question and they get a general answer to go to acer store, but no specific locations and brackets are listed.  Please help me find one on Amazon or other dealer that will fit my laptop.  I have looked and looked and I can only find a triangular ssd bracket that only fits in the dvd drive bay.  Thank you for your help.

  • Hi,
    If you are looking for the 2nd HDD bracket(yellow), the part number is 33.RYNN5.001 and I also couldn't find any retailers having the item, I can only suggest you to contact Acer Support centre in USA, they may be able to find any partner retailer near you, you could also try any local laptop repair shops near you, as a last resort, you may have to use some rubber (packing material) to secure the SSD in the bay, even two small double sided sticky tape would suffice.
    As SSDs don't have moving parts, there won't be any vibrations, so it's quite safe option.

    thanks for the suggestion.......... acer won't help answer a question unless I pay them.  So they won't help answer a question if your laptop is past a certain age...........

  • No problem, I think this will give you an idea, get some soft rubber material from local hardware store, it's the easy option.

    Hi Iam sure the rubber answer would work, but I did actually get a bracket from Germany on Amazon, just enter code 

    Acer 33.GG2N7.003 

    about£18 pricey enough for what it is though
