Hi, I want to install a hard drive in my Acer A315-23-R252, what cable and bracket do I need? Preferably in the United States, Miami or whit shiping thank you very much.
And another thing, they told me that the part number of the cable was: 50.HGLN7.003, but in the stores where they have it they say that it is for another model of Laptop, if they can answer the doubt I would appreciate it.

    If in the US or CA, you can request an ACER 2.5" drive installation kit from  this link

    However, I would not recommend adding a metal bracket and screws to a laptop that's already crowded enough inside. I instead immobilize and protect 2.5 HDDs or SSDs inside laptops with anti-static foam. 

    The correct cable part no. is 50.HGLN7.003 that is used in many different models including your a315-23. So I would only use this cable along with foam, no bracket or screws.
