There is a special cable needed to add a HD to the dock. Search here and you'll find a thread on it that gives the part number.

So i understand that all docks are the same including or not hdd?
Buying the cable can i install ssd disk? i saw some pictures of docks that doésn't have space to install a disk. This is the point.
Thank you!

Someone might chime in to prove me wrong, but I believe all keyboarrds (except maybe he new Switch 10E) have the same plastic mold, giving the needed space for the HD.

Thanks for the information. I 've reading the post you mention above about Aspire switch 11.
Apart of cable, do you know if i need a Caddy to fix the ssd disk to the dock? is a samsung evo with 7mm.
Thanks in advance, you 're helping very much. And sorry for my English, but i'm Spanish and Spanish community don't have any idea, they don't understand nothing

I actually had ordered the HDD and cable for mine, but when I opened up the keyboard, the circuit board did not have the connection for the cable. Won't work on my Switch 10 SW5-012.

Hi can you upload any picture of the dock?
It's like this video?

The inside of my keyboard looked exactly the same as the youtube video. There is no connection available for the hdd cable as seen on the Switch 11, I didn't even look to see if there was any space. I'll have to buy an external usb enclosure for the HDD I bought, it's just not going to work inside the keyboard.

Hi,
The part number is 50.MX4N5.001, what's the full model name? Anyway, here's an example:http://www.aceronline.es/cable-hdd-sata-ffc-acer-aspire-sw1-011-50-mx4n5-001.html

I tried that cable and a working HDD but the Switch did not recognise the addition of the HDD. Is there a BIOS update or driver update needed? Device Manager shows no problems.

@Xserkque you should start a new thread using the Ask a Question button. You don't have the same computer as others in the thread (not your fault others hijacked it) and the thread itself is more than 5 years old. Include the full model number and a description of what cable you need and we should be able to look up the part number for you.
