Well I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this idea that ran through my head is possible. I only have one hard drive, so I though why keep the bay which stores 3 hard drives when I am only utilizing one of the slots and it constricts airflow for my computer. So I have looked around for this but only Apple products appear when I google for anything remotely related for storing an HDD in a optical drive bay. So if anyone can send me a link to a product that can make me mount my HDD in the optical bay that'd be very much appreciated! If not possible all is fine just wanted to know if anyone knew anything about this! Thank you.
