    What is that? Does that replace the hard drive? Is it easy to switch between those two things?

    It replaces your optical drive... it's basically just a piece of plastic that fits into the optical drive slot to reduce weight if you don't need to use the optical drive.

    Yes, it's very easy to swap it in/out. Just hold the latch and pull...

    Yes, it's not the hard drive and yes, it's easy to switch the optical drive and the traveller's drawer. But I do recommend restarting the computer if you hot-swap out the traveller's drawer for the optical. Vice versa, you won't need a restart.
