    Has anyone tried to install a 1TB M.2 SSD to the Swift 3?
    Sorry for my very  bad english, i am french :)
    I have a SWIFT 3 SF315-52G with a M2 SATA 118GB drive and  1TB HDD SATA3 drive.
    I tried to change both but it seems impossible...
    When i try to install 1TB SSD drive (M2 OR SATA 3 HDD),  the laptop hang on ACER logo... I can't reach BIOS.
    ACER doesn't want to help me for that...
    Searches on internet seem to show that a bug appeared after the 1.04 bios, preventing any installation of SSD greater than 512TB, either on the M2 port or the SATA port.
    Their technical support walks me with uninteresting answers ....
    They are however responsible for this bug and are apparently not determined to correct it, probably to sell newer machines ...
    Hi, i don't know if u solved the problem, yesterday i successfully upgraded my laptop with a secondary SSD, using a Toshiba brand SSD, the 480GB TR150, tried a lot of brands and just Toshiba workined for me.
    Bios Setup:
    Ver: 1.08
    SATA Mode: change RST to AHCI

    What do you mean about ctrl+s¿?
    Just enter on the bios and change RST to AHCI, but now i got another issue, the secondary SSD drive 480GB TR150 it goes sleep/energy saving, and if i have files and i want to open, i need to wait the drive turn on and then the files will show up
