I've just brought a acer aspire 1 a111 31 series and was looking to upgrade the internal storage but to my surprise it's not like the usual sata hard drive connection inside the laptop. It is a very small grey connection with 4 pins inside. Can anyone tell me what this is? And where i can get one? I've uploaded a photo not sure if you can it. Thanks in advance.

Hard Drive connector is above the RAM, and the cable runs from there to hard drive port. Not sure where to obtain connector and don't know what the little 4 pin socket is for in the hard drive port area

Some notebook manufacturers put a eMMC drive on a separate board, like this
