• Reviews around drive (1.24 of 5)

    Acer Aspire 5 Slim Laptop, 15.6" Full HD IPS Display, AMD Ryzen 3 3200U, Vega 3 Graphics, 4GB DDR4, 128GB SSD, Backlit Keyboard, Windows 10 in S Mode, A515-43-R19L

    • The zippy performance is more thanks to the SSD Hard Drive than the RAM
    • If you need space, it’s not a bad idea to buy a second cheaper SATA drive for storage while running your OS off the SSD
    • Acer has videos on youtube that show you how to add an additional hard drive, so that was helpful
    • This computer comes with an empty hard drive bay and there's another expansion slot for RAM.
    • Plus, memory and hard drive space can be easily upgraded for very little cost, making it possible to match the features of more expensive models without the price tag
    • Despite being a slim lightweight laptop with a large and bright screen, it is very easy to replace the memory and hard drive, unlike many recent premium laptops that are glued shut with non-removable components
    • Overall i am really loving this laptop, it was very affordable, easily upgradeable hard drive and memory, and it is working great.

    • I also expanded the hard disk space with a Kingston 240 GB HDD since after Windows 10 upgrades there was only about 95GB of hard drive space left on the 128GB SSD
    • I like that the RAM can be upgraded and a 2nd hard drive added, but there’s no easy access to do this
    • I tried to stress the laptop by playing some genuine 4k content off my hard drive (1:1 4k BDs), while having some Chrome tabs opened, and this laptop handled that like a champ
