Acer Aspire 1 recommend a caddy that will be compatible with the A115-32 and where to get it?

rrccaatech

I’m trying to install a 2.5 SATA hdd but my laptop came without a caddy, a bracket, screws, or a cable. I’ve been searching for a caddy/cable for this laptop for ages but I can’t find it online or in store. I’ve tried talking to customer support but they didn’t help me figure out where to get these things. Can someone please recommend a caddy that will be compatible with the A115-32 and where to get it?

Yes, all the below parts should be included with all Acer laptops that have a provision for a 2.5" SATA drive. Search the web with the Acer part number and then the decryption of the part, as that is how you will get these genuine parts, that especially applies to the SATA cable/plug, as you should only buy the SATA Acer part number cale listed below, as if its a different part number, it will not fit, which I found out the hard way with my Nitro laptop that I damaged the SATA cable at the mobo end, so be very careful when you connect this cable as the clip plug and spaces are very limited. Good luck and hope this helps you out.

Here are the parts that you need to mount a 2.5" HDD or SSD into the Aspire A115-32 laptop

4x Carrier Bracket Screws

4x Module Screws

You need a Sata-3 ribbon cable part no. 50.A9BN2.001 ($20) https://www.ebay.com/itm/134248473142 finding the caddy online will be very difficult, consider using HD double sided tape, this has been proven to work OK.
