    Should be perfectly fine with your Acer. As long as the interface and form factor are correct, there shouldn't be any reason why it wont work.

    Should be no issues. I prefer Western Digital drives, but to each his own.

    I know my OEM hard drive now is a SATA 1.5Gb/s. So I should not be worried about the 3.0Gb/s being supported by my motherboard?

    Thanks for your help!

    I found my answer and I will use a hard drive with SATA 1.5Gb/s interface.

    Thanks again!
