Is there any way to tell if this will work in my Acer Aspire X1470? I have a SATA HDD, but no way to tell if SATA I, II, or III SSD will work. Thanks!

As the other two people mentioned, it will definitely work, whether you're using SATA-I, SATA-II, or SATA-III.The only hitch is (of course) that you will not be exploiting the full potential of the SSD on any system that uses the earlier two revisions of SATA.Still, the speedup advantage is probably more noticeable over conventional hard drives on older revision systems, and you can always upgrade to a system with SATA-III later and drop this SSD into it and see what it can REALLY do.

John Jamieson is not correct in stating that SATA is backwards-compatible. It all depends on the manufacturer's specifications. You'll find that some of Samsung's SSDs (look at the EVO) will work with SATA-I, SATA-II, and SATA-III, while the Crucial M500 SSD will only work with SATA-II and SATA-III.

The short answer is, yes. Though the drive is rated to work on SATA 6GB/sec it is backwards compatible and should work.

It did not work neither on my Fujitsu C2220 nor on my Dell Precision 4440; I tried three Hard drives, from 20GB to 80GB (also Travelstar by Hitachi) and none of them was detected on my laptops. Virtually garbage, although I have read some reviews claiming that it works sometimes. I would suggest you to buy an analogous thing of "Sabrent" brand at Wal-Mart online (it costs may be just about $7, free delivery to the store if you have one nearby, and it works perfectly with my laptops). Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I have already purchased and am using the drive with no problem. I purchased after reading on Newegg that someone had been using it with an Acer Aspire One with no problems. Tahnks again for taking the time to reply.

I just replaced my TOSHIBA THNSNX024GMCT on ACER S3 with some other mSATA disk, so most probably every msata disk works in ACER S3.

Sata it's the only way to connect a sata drive to this type of notebook. Does it work Yes, over price for plastic. You won't hit full speed of the drive but it works and faster It feels then ide drive...may not be flush with case after installing. So you know

Looks like it :) According to this pic, being that your laptop specifically, you can see to the side of the wireless card, there's a slot for m-SATA cards http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vo7pU2L24QU/Utt7J_eI1kI/AAAAAAAACok/Y6_eyQdThpQ/s1600/Laptop+Acer+Aspire+V5-573G-7450121Taii+-+Haswell,+Full+HD+IPS-3+inside.jpg That should be enough to plug it in and install your OS. Please, make an informed decision. It doesn't appear to be be much information about compatibility from ACER sites, so please be careful. I'd say you're on the safe side, though.

If it truely is a mSata SSD disk then yes it will work, any and most mSata cards work very well with this adapter depending on the size and shape they have. Now according to your specs I pulled up and looking at a similar laptop this will properly fit into the adapter. If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will try and respond promptly as possible.

Sorry, I can't help. I put it in a Compaq with no trouble. There are programs out there that can id your memory, and if you go to Crucial.com, it will let you know what kind of memory you have. You could also check with Acer which should probably tell you what kind of memory is needed.

This is low profile HDD. For acer aspire 9410Z, you just need a regular 2.5 inches SATA Hard drive.

This did not work adapting a laptop optical to STANDARD SATA. I needed what they call Slimline SATA to SATA: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009JXKQ9O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 -- Do the research, but yes, the description fits the specs of what you want to do. Problem you may encounter is fit inside the elitebook because of the adapter. I am saying you want THIS adapter, not the Slimline. Again, this is an opinion only, do your research. GH

Sorry, I have no idea as I have the ACER Aspire One and found the external drive to be very sluggish- takes for ever to run through a disc ..

Hi Charles as a computer technician I can tell you that SATA is backwards compatible. So SATA II and SATA III will work in a SATA I the only difference is the max throughput that you will see for read/write performance. I do believe that E-Machine does have SATA ports on it. Secondly to see best performance you would need to install a SATA II or III controller for maximum performance. I installed a SSD drive in my mothers notebook and it's only SATA I it is only about half the performance in my desktop which is SATA III.

I don't think it will work in an acer aspire 4741-5333 laptop. It works in a Toshiba Laptop that I have.

jnwarm, if you were referring to Seagate Momentus 750GB XT, unfortunately Amazon does provide info which item I purchased in responding to. I currently I have it in my Dell Latitude E6510 and working with no issue.

It converts msata to sata so everything that take a sata connection will work i have used it in netbooks, laptops and desktop pc all working well.

I have not worked on that particular model of laptop. However, I have worked on at least a dozen other laptops of various brand (Toshiba, Sony, HP, and Dell) and I have been successful in using SSD drives in them. Only in once Dell laptop was the drive a problem. The SSd driive is thinner than the SATA drive that comes in the laptop. Because it did not have any mounting bracket and slid directly into the laptop, it would not line up properly. I had to cut out a few sheets of thin plastic and tape them to the drive to give it the thickness it needed to line up . After that, it went in fine and has been working fine ever since.
