Does the Acer Aspire V5-552G Take an NVMe SSD?
Acer Aspire V5-552G
Every one of 40 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.
That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.
Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] FCH SATA Controller [AHCI mode]
- Platform:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Family 15h (Models 10h-1fh) Processor Root Complex
- Drives seen:
- SanDisk SDSSDH3, WDC WD10JPVX-22J, Samsung SSD 850
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 1 TB (57%)
- 500 GB (36%)
- 960 GB (7%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
How we know
This answer is derived from 40 independent hardware reports for the Acer Aspire V5-552G, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
