I have Aspire A315 23 R39S, with factory fitted 1TB HDD. Can I also add an SSD? If so, which type/form factor SSD?

StevenGen said:The A315-23 has provisions for 1x M.2 SSD PCIe Gen3 x2 and 1x 2.5" SATAIII (read 560 MB/write 530 MB/s) which the Samsung EVO 870 has, as you can either fit a 2.5" mechanical drive (which is allot slower) or an SSD 2.5" drive. Since the A315-23's M.2 PCIe drive is a Gen3 x2 and are not available (but you might get one used?) the best is to get a suitable M.2 NVMe PCIe 3 x4 that is compatible to the A315-23 OEM that Acer fitted to your A315-23 which is a PCIe 3 x2 M.2 drives like the "SANDISK SDAPNUW-512G-1014" or the "HYNIX HFM512GDJTN I-82A0A" which are a 512GB capacity and is a useful size (as putting anything lower capacity is just too small) and all these Acer OEM fitted M.2 PCIe x2 drives are of write speeds of 1400 Mb/S / read speed 1700 Mb/S which is compatible with allot of the new PCIe 3 x4 drives from Western Digital, Samsung, Seagate and others, as they are cheap and good value for money/performance drives. As purchasing any faster and like the higher end M.2 NVMe PCIe 3 x4 or PCIe 4 drives would be a waste of money as the A313-23 will never utilise its full speeds and/or you will not get any benefit from their faster write/read speeds than what your laptop was designed for.0
