Hi, saw a video on youtube of a guy adding an SSD to an aspire. It had the caddy, connector and cable packed inside. anyone Know if these parts are available here?

    Depends on your current setup. If you already have an m.2 SSD, you can just add the 2.5" SSD. If you already have a 2.5" HDD or SSD, you can just add an m.2 SSD. The 2.5" SSD doesn't really need a caddy or bracket. Just a common internal SATA3 laptop SSD/HDD ribbon cable that'll fit inside the case (part# 50.H14N2.003 if you want the exact ACER part) and a bit of antistat foam to immobilize and protect the 2.5" drive inside.
