laptop is an acer aspire v3-572G-54L9 (please note that there is a v5-572g, this is the v3, I do not know why they named it like this)
This has been going on for a while now, a few months maybe longer. My cell phone camera is sMaRt enough to correct everything so the photos aren't the most...
for anyone wondering, there appears, at least on my v3-572g-54L9 that there i another slim sata for the odd, I haven't tested to see if acer did anything to it that would hinder or block its performance. Jut an fyi.
