Does this come with HD locks? Or do I have to screw them in? Same with the DVD drive.

Yes it does, you also have the option to put in a couple of screws on the backside

To install the HD(s), start by removing both side panels. Slide the HD into position in the HD cage. You will see that two of the holes in the side of the HD will line up with holes on the outside of the HD cage insert a screw into both of those holes and tighten them up. To assure good rigidity, do the same thing on the other side of the case.\To install the DVD, start by carefully popping off the front bezel. It's got a wire attachment you don't want to rip out by being careless! Slide the DVD back into the slot. On the left side of the case, you'll see a black plastic bar, with a tab that says "Open" and "Lock." Move the tab to Open and gently swing out the tab. Align the side of the DVD with two pre-drilled holes up around where the plastic bar is. The DVD has holes too. When the holes are aligned, push the plastic bar back into place. There are two projections on that that will fit the holes and hold the drive. Push the tab to "Lock." On the other side of the case, find those two holes and screw a couple of screws into them to assure rigidity and safety of your drive. Good luck!

Does windows read a that my video in there explaining how to install a hard drive? If not can you get get someone to click on the video for you? It is real easy there are only two screws on the outside and once you remove them you will separate the case and the insert the hard drive, then you have to use the two supplied silver screws to secure the hard drive in the case and the restore the two exterior black screws. I hope that helps but i suggest having someone watch my video that explains the installation process so it goes smoother for you.

Mine snapped right on locked in place no glue needed! Holes line up and snaps in place the clips and slot all line up. I wanted keep my DVD drive with the bezel for resale of this PC when I upgrade so I ordered a N550JV (JV/JK same bezel) bezel used online (this caddy was missing the black bezel) cause I thought I had to glue it. I hate Gorilla glue i was going to use fast setting JB Weld epoxy (only fast set cause some types are too runny). But didnt need it ;-)

None...you install the hard drives you want, If you go to their website you can find out a lot of answers. www.bufflaotech.com

Yes I think to lock the drive down you need the software but for backing up and using as hard drive you can use whatever. Weather Digital is good for that reason.

The caddy and the DVD drive are interchangeable and each is removed and installed the same way. Removal involves taking one screw loose and prying the lever with a flathead screwdriver. Installation involves seating the caddy/drive and tightening the screw.

On the front of the drive it says "DVD+R DL." I interpret this to mean a "yes" answer to your question. In spite of what this also implies, I can tell you from experience that it will also handle DVD rewritables. The only thing I noticed when using it was that it wrote quite a bit faster than I expected. I would definitely buy these drives again. One caution, though. This is a SATA drive and cannot be used with an IDE connector. Be sure you have an available SATA port before you spend money for it.

We have not tried to copy any HD discs. The unit does not show any documentation of HD so I feel it would not copy hd files

Yes, it comes with screws to attach the HDD into the bay. It does not come with screws, or other means of attachment to attach the bay into the server or PC.

Not sure why the photos show the internal workings - the hard drive (and any I've ordered) come enclosed. You do not open it unless you are trying to physically destroy the discs... Those photos are stock photos - I did not post them.

It comes with 2 sata 6 cables. you need 1 for each hard drive and one for each dvd drive if you only have one of each than you don't need anymore. there are only 2 sata 6 ports, and 4 sata 3 ports. sata 6 cables are backward compatible with 3

I'm pretty sure that one has the dvd drive. I replaced the hdd with an ssd really easily.

Mine came with Windows 7 Professional installed. No discs. So I attempted to make my own Windows Recovery discs, and discovered the optical drive would read and write to CD, but DVD was read-only. Contacted seller who is mailing me a replacement optical drive.

Yep. No problem. I did, I actually did a SATA Raid with 2 HDD's plus a DVD drive

I just installed it in my daughter's Toshiba laptop last night with the same series of laptop you mention. Just don't lose the screws when you take the other hard drive out. I am assuming that you will clone the original to it. Or load an OS with it. Either way my daughter is up and running all day just fine!

Yes. It locked well in my case. Simple screw-in type.I've had for about a year now. No problem so far.
