No but you can add a second drive in the DVD bay using a DVD caddy. I replaced the hard drive with a 128 gig Samsung 840 Pro SSD ($114.99) for use as the boot/system/program drive, and then mounted the 500 gig drive I removed in a Universal SATA Hard Drive Caddy ($13.65) and put this in the empty DVD bay for the data drive.

My experience is all the 15" laptops I come across support a second bay in the disk drive location, but you have to find a special 3rd party insert for it. I'm tempted to put BACK in the default HD because I upgrade to a SSD, but even a 240g drive is pretty tiny.

A solid state drive could be fitted to replace the existing hard drive. These are currently very expensive, particularly if you wanted to replace the existing 1 Terra-byte disc. There would not be room to fit an additional drive. Of course, you could always use an external SSD, utilising one of the many the USB ports.

It does have a DVD/CD drive. That description auto populates amenities find it confusing as well

There are 4 drive bays. I haven't done so, but I understand you can rig the DVD slot for an additional drive. I have already added USB external without a problem. As far as the larger that 2TB drives - sorry, I haven't tried that. I'm running two small drives to handle the OS in a RAID configuration and 2-2TB drives in a RAID for everything else. Just haven't had a reason to upgrade beyond 2TB yet.

No it doesn't a DVD/cd drive at all. I sent mine back for a refund. It is not an easy device to use. I recommend spending a little more money for something that will actually work. It wasn't user friendly and neither of my children could even use it

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

No, the laptop does not have a CD /DVD drive. You are able to connect an external one to the laptop, if that helps.

Have a hard drive disk and a multi card disk drive. Don't have a cd/dvd disk drive. Need to buy an external usb unit. I buy a original hp for 45$.

No - I recommend getting either an external DVD/CD reader, or an external hard drive such as a Western Digital passport that you can store larger files such as installation media, etc. and run those from the external drive.

Never mind apparently there is one. Don't get a optical drive though. You need to stuff all your cables there because there is NO ROOM AT ALL

I added the ssd. Really improved the unit. Not sure about another optical drive

There is no optical drive (CD or DVD). You can buy an external drive and plug that if you need to use discs for some reason.
