Adding HDD to laptop

[Buter]

Hello, recently my dad bought laptop (17-ca1000ur) and we wanted to setup HDD (I thought it would be easy), but we failed when opend back cover. So i wonder if there such an opportunity (setup hdd)? I can see that there is a place for 2.5'' hdd, but can't see interface to connect it with.

In addition to a 2.5 inch SATA superslim 7mm hard drive or SSD you also need this:

Hard drive cover L22534-001

and this

Hard drive cable L22526-001

See p. 44 of the Service Manual here:

You are in Russia which will only complicate matters; the parts are hard enough to find in the US and EU.

I am not sure this sender ships to RF, but eBay has an international delivery program you might be able to use. 

Good luck. Ask any more questions by posting back or please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.
