    I just bought this laptop and would like to put in a ssd and put the hdd included where the optical drive is now. Could somebody please provide a link to one that I would need from Amazon that they have used. I tried to search the reviews but no one has mentioned this specific model. Thank you very much.

    Just get a 12.7mm and SATA connection, any should work, they are a universal size.

    You're very welcome. That looks like it should work, cant say 100% since we're not selling it directly. But if I were ordering it for myself I would be fine with that one.

    Most laptops do not employ a proprietary design for the ODD bay, so that caddy should fit. :)

    You may already know this but you can take off the bezel and put it on the caddy to keep the same look.
