Hi i have read some posts of how to change ssd to hdd, but i only want to know one thing, is it possible to put a 2,5"hdd? as i read in this post http://www.aspireoneuser.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1230 that acer one cames with a seagate of 2,5" with 120Gb...but if i pursache this hdd, could i able to put it in the acer one? or are they diferent...?

Summing: in my 8gb SSD could i puta an 2,5"HDD? or must be a 1,8"HDD?
i was watching to buy one of these hdd? (anyone knows if all of these 3 hdd works?

1-hitachi c4k60 1,8"
2-toshiba MK300GAL or MK600GAL 1,8"
3-Seagate ST9120817AS, SATA 3Gb/s 2.5" drive 120gb
 
Sata involves soldering or a few adapters, ie sata to zif then a sata cable I think.
The others are fine, the Hitachi one needs a flip cable, and the Toshiba one needs a cable with a thin end.
Flip cables can be made by some folding technique, on the site somewhere, and thin cables can be made by sanding one down with sandpaper

Aspire One 8GB SSD 1536MB RAM and an 80GB Toshiba ZIF drive that doesn't work, and is now lost in the post.

I'm wondering this to, I'm in the thoughts of buying a Toshiba MK1214GAH 120GB and have second thoughts now.
 
Well, this one doesn't seem to be a ZIF drive, so you won't be able to install it. Sorry.
 
sorry for the confusion, but it was broken, like non functional, rather than incompatible
 
The Toshiba site usually specifies it when the drive has a ZIF/LIF interface. It doesn't say such a thing for this one, and besides the picture makes me suspect it's a SATA interface at the back. Need to confirm that, though, I might be wrong.
 
hi all user of acer one

we managed to put sata 2.5 hd after solder the sata connecter and add 1 more wire for the hard disk power and run perfectly
