“Can an internal hard drive be installed in this? If so any recommendations on which one?”

1-3 of 3 Answers

• Absolutely. There is an empty internal Bay for either a mechanical, or solid state, SATA Drive. I purchased the Samsung 860 EVO 1tb internal solid-state drive from Best Buy for $149.99. The 256 gb solid-state drive that it comes with is a PCI Express. There is also an additional empty slot for Ram. For about $65 you can buy an additional 8GB stick and upgrade to 16 gigabytes of RAM.

  I would recommend:

    Samsung - 860 EVO 1TB Internal SATA 2.5" Solid State Drive

• the primary drive is an m.2 drive, as far as the secondary bay.. It's a 2.5 inch 'laptop' drive bay with a sata connector.. Any HD or SSD fitting those characteristics should be fine.

• There is a 2.5" slot accessible from the bottom of the laptop to install a 2.5" hdd. Acer has tested up to a 2TB SATA3 hdd.
