    I consider adding additional hdd 7200rpm with hot swap.
    I guess I need some kind of drawer to put the hdd in, right? How is it called then ? and where can I buy one ?

    You need the HDD kit - contact one of the resellers here about purchasing one.

    For those interested, it shows up as a Primary Slave.

    That's correct, you will need to get the Hard Drive Kit for the V1JP, this allows you to place the HD into the Hot Swap bay.

    The modular bay battery and optical drive don't need any extra hardware.
