If this is the Acer Nitro 5 laptop that I've seen, then this drive won't work. It is much too big for a laptop. If you are thinking of building an external hard drive for your laptop, you'll also need an external hard drive case for it. Best Buy sells such enclosures such as the one in the picture below. Be sure that your laptop has enough USB ports on it so that you can plug this into a USB port directly rather than into a USB hub. Most USB hubs do not provide enough data and power for such enclosures.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Most likely not. This drive is for Desktop units, while laptop units are usually smaller. That, and if you can go SSD for the laptop, it will be much quicker than a spin drive. You may want to go small SSD for the laptop and then an external drive for your laptop.
