Replacing CD drive with SSD

Hi All. Can someone advise me on what to buy to replace my CD drive and add an additional ssd drive in its place?

I have a late 2011 MBP 17" that works sooo great.


Thank you in advanced

There are a variety of different products that should work. Happy mentioned the DataDoubler from OWC. There are a variety of different products designed to allow a 2.5" SATA drive to fit in a slimline optical drive bay.


One of them is called OptiBay.
